Question

I need help , give me an idea o this one please
Figure on comments

Answer 1

I don't get it! Please explain!
We need the dimension of the two legs, and have to assume the included angle is 90 deg.

Answer 2

yeah , thats what Im troubled about.

Its Two sides of a square are along the lines whose equations are 4x-3y =25 and 4x-3y = -10. What is the perimeter of the square?

So thought of solving the hypotenuse( diagonal ) and use formula for the perimeter 4 d

Answer 3

@mathmate

Answer 4

ok, this is a completely different problem!
The triangle misled me.

Answer 5

sorry about that hehe

Answer 6

First we'll draw a sketch!

Answer 7

alright :)

Answer 8

oh so thats how it looks like

Answer 9

please continue :)

Answer 10

The two lines have the same slope, so they are parallel.

Answer 11

To find the perimeter of the square, you need the length of one side.

Answer 12

alright ...

Answer 13

Would you be able to propose how we can go about finding it?

Answer 14

transform it to y = mx + b , form ?
or get the coordinates and use point slope form ?

Answer 15

It's actually easier than that. I have already done the first step, which is to transform the equations to the general form: Ax+By+C=0.

Answer 16

Have you learned how to find the distance between a \(point\) and a \(line\)?

Answer 17

I think Im familiar with that
