Distance Formula: 
Point 1: (9,0)
Point 2: (5,-8)
D = sqrt[ (5 - 9)^2 + (-8 - 0)^2 ]
D = sqrt[ (-4)^2 + (-8)^2 ]
D = sqrt[ 16 + 64]
D = sqrt(80)

Answer: i think its 4 im not sure
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The value of a = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x₁, y₁) = (2, 4)
(x₂, y₂) = (6, a)
(x₃, y₃) = (-1, 1)
A = 9 sq.units
Area of a triangle with vertices (x₁, y₁), (x₂, y₂), and (x₃, y₃) is:

substituting the values (x₁, y₁) = (2, 4), (x₂, y₂) = (6, a), (x₃, y₃) = (-1, 1), A = 9 in th formula


Multiply both sides by 2

simplify

As the area is always positive.
so


Add 18 to both sides

simplify



Divide both sides by 3


Thus, the value of a = 14
