using the distance  formula, solve the following points;

1. 
G = (-7,3)
H = (1,12)
c = (-3,-9)

2. 
J = (9,-8)
K = (7,-4)
L = (2,-1)

1. 
G = (-7,3)
H = (1,12)
c = (-3,-9)

 

I assume that these are vertices of a triangle and you want to know the length of each side

 

We need to use the distance formula

 

GH   =  √ ( [ -7 -1 ] ^2  + [ 3 - 12]^2 )   =  √ ( [-8]^2 + [ -9]^2 )  =  √[64 + 81]  = √145 

 

Gc  = √ ( [ -7  - -3]^2 + [3 - - 9]^2 )  = √ ( [ -4]^2 + [ 12]^2 )   = √ ( 16 + 144)  = √ 160  =  4√10

 

Hc =  √ ( [ -3 - 1]^2  + [ -9 - 12]^2 )  = √ ( [-4]^2 + [-21]^2 )  = √ [ 16 + 441)  = √457

 

Can you do the second one, kathh22 ???

 

 

cool cool cool
