Answer:
Irrational Number

Step-by-step explanation:
So, since it's a right triangle, you can use Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the measure of the hypotenuse.

Pythagorean Theorem says the hypotenuse squared = the sum of the sides squared.

5² + 6² = 25 + 36 = 61

And the square root of 61 is 7.8102496.... and the decimal continues in no distinguishable pattern. Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is an irrational number.

Find the distance between points A (10,-1) and B (-2,5). Round to the nearest tenth

bija089 [108]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 13.4 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

$d = \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} + ({y1 - y2})^{2} } \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

A (10,-1) and B (-2,5)

The distance is

$|AB| = \sqrt{ ({10 + 2})^{2} + ({ - 1 - 5})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {12}^{2} + ({ - 6})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{144 + 36} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ = \sqrt{180} \\ = 6 \sqrt{5} \: \: \\ =13.416407$

We have the final answer as

<h3>13.4 units to the nearest tenth</h3>
