Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
2. You are trying to find x which is c^2
so plug in the other numbers to the other letters. 9^2 + 17^2 = c^2
9^2= 81. 17^2= 289
81 + 289 = 370
370= c^2
Now all you have to do is square root the number
*square root sign* 370
19.24
c = 19.24
So, x = 19.24

We're told (5,-2) is on the line, that's x=5, y=-2
First one y-5 = -7, (x+2)/3=7/3, not equal
Second one y+5=3, (x-2)/3=1, not equal
Third one y+2=0, (x-5)/3=0, TRUE, equal
Fourth one, y-2=-4 (5+5)/3=10/3, not equal
Answer: third choice y+2 = (1/3)(x+5)
