Answer 1

use the pythagorean thoerm

Answer 2

*theorem*

Answer 3

can you explain it to me then

Answer 4

you need to find the slopes of these 3 segments:

AB, BC, AC

Answer 5

use the slope formula to do so

\[\Large m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\]

Answer 6

tell me what slopes you get
