A little stuck getting started on this one...Consider the three points A = (7, -3), B = (9, 1), and C = (11, 0). Find the

Do you know the distance formula?

anonymous · Answer

Do you mean C^2=a^2+b^2?

hartnn · Answer

Distance between points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is 
$\huge d=\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}$
does this help ??

anonymous · Answer

It's the third set of points that's confusing me.

hartnn · Answer

length of each side means you'll have to find 
AB
BC
AC

for AB, take points A and B and use the formula to get it....
AB= .... ?
