@mvrc1996 are you there? still need help?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes:D but on a different one now

what i got to was sqrt29 but thats not it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if you know how to find BB' just do the same with CC'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok, tell me how to find C' by the transformation T?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(3+2)^2+ (0-2)^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5^2+(-2)^2

sqrt29
OpenStudy (anonymous):
why do you square them? the transformation T tells us that x---> x+2 and y ---> y+1 only, not square
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because when using the distance formula which is what you se to find them you square them
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and the way the answer tells me to do it its squared idk how to explain that to you

oh no!! you first find out the coordinate of C' , from C ( -2 ,2) you have C' (0, 3) , right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and then from that, apply the distance formula to find the length of CC'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ik its squared because it has a sqrt and then im suppost to put the numbers in
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thats exactly the process i showed you up above

oh wait i had 2,-2 not -2,2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
for what? C, C'?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is the answer sqrt5 i think it is
OpenStudy (anonymous):
?

at the end up, you have c( -2,2) and C'( 0,3) right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the distance formula give you |dw:1367768432444:dw|
that's it
