Segment AB has point A located at (4, 2). If the distance from A to B is 3 units, which of the following is the coordinate for point B? (5, 2) (1, 5) (4, -1) (-2, 2)

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

Please Help Me.

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

I was thinking A

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

Could u help me @sidsiddhartha

OpenStudy (sidsiddhartha):

u can use the distence formula that is distence between any two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is \[d=\large \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\]

OpenStudy (sidsiddhartha):

in ur question \[(x_1,y_1)=(4,2) \] and distence =d=3 is given now plug the values in the options and see for which set of points d=3

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

But i dont have two coordinates i just got 4,2

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

yes i quite understand that but not the rest im thinking it would be C

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

How about u @Loser66

OpenStudy (sidsiddhartha):

yes (x1,y1)=4,2 and one of the options is (x2,y2) now u just need to put them one by one and see in which one d comes 3

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

So im saying C then?

OpenStudy (sidsiddhartha):

yeah good its C ^_^

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

Wait dont leave help me with 2 more last question and thats it i promise

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

Point A is located at (2, 6), and D is located at (−4, 10). Find the coordinates of the point that lies halfway between A and D. (−1, 8) (3, 2) (−2, 7) (−3, 4)

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

I was saying C but im not so sure

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

But i was going towards B

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

@sidsiddhartha

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

@amistre64

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

What do u think? @sidsiddhartha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its A use (x1+x2)/2 for x co-ordinate of Mid-point... & (y1+y2)/2 for y-co-ordinate....

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

THANK U @israr000

OpenStudy (carolina4567):

I got one more left!
