Drag the ordered pair that are 5.5 units apart.

Answer:

  (-1.5, -3.5) and (-1.5, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-coordinates in increasing order are ...

  -3, -1.5, 5

The distances between pairs of these coordinates are ...

  -1.5 -(-3) = 1.5

  5 -(-3) = 8

  5 -(-1.5) = 6.5

Clearly, any pair with x = 5 is too far away from any pair with a different x-value.

<u>∆x = 1.5</u>

If the distance between pairs is 5.5, then the distance formula tells us the y-coordinate differences for pairs with x-coordinates of -3 and -1.5 must be ...

  d = √((x2 -x1)^2 +(y2 -y1)^2)

  5.5 = √(1.5^2 +(y2 -y1)^2) . . . substitute known values

  30.25 = 2.25 +(y2 -y1)^2 . . . . square both sides

  √28 = (y2 -y1) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2.25 and take the square root

This value is irrational. Clearly none of the y-coordinates is irrational, so there are no point pairs with x-coordinates -3 and -1.5 that are 5.5 units apart.

__

<u>∆x = 0</u>

If the x-coordinates are the same, then the y-coordinates must differ by 5.5 in order for the points to be 5.5 units apart. The coordinates in order are ...

  for x = -1.5, y = -3.5, 2, 2.5 . . . . . differences of 5.5, 6, 0.25

  for x = 5, y = -3.5, 1.5 . . . . . . . difference of 5

The only pair we can find that is 5.5 units apart is ...

  (-1.5, -3.5) and (-1.5, 2).

Find the measure of the missing side. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. (PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM)
Burka [1]

Answer:

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the length of the missing side is 5.4 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Pythagorean theorem, a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}, where c is the length of the hypotenuse (the longest side), a and b are the lengths of the other two sides. We can use this to solve for the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle shown in your question (the missing side):

2^{2}+5^{2}=c^{2}

This simplifies to 29=c^{2}. Now to solve for c (the length of the hypotenuse), we just take the square root of both sides of the equation and solve like so:

\sqrt{29} =\sqrt{c^{2}}

This simplifies to c≈5.4 in.
