Question

COULD SOMEONE CHECK MY ANSWER?

Answer 1

do you know the formula for the distance between 2 points given their coordinates?

Answer 2

distance between the 2 points = sqrt [ (y2 - y1^2 + (x2-x1)^2]
- its really the the pythagoras theorem

Answer 3

Do I have to draw that?

Answer 4

Are these questions easy? Because I don't know the answer.

Answer 5

No

just use the formula for the lines
for example

the distance AB = sqrt ( (300-0^2) + (400-0)^2) = sqrtr ( 300^2 + 400^2)
= sqrt ( 250,000)

Answer 6

I don't know either. I kind of need the answer but i'm not sure if someone can give me it, but like by showing me how to do it.

Answer 7

So the answer is 250,000?

Answer 8

what is the square root of 250,000 - use ur calculator.

Answer 9

no 250,000 is not the answer to the whole program
The square root of 250,000 is the length of AB

Answer 10

* whole problem

Answer 11

to find the length of the vertical and horizontal lines is easy
Just subtract the y or x coordinates as appropriate.

Answer 12

@Rz172 - what is the square root of 250,000?
this will give you the distance from A to B

Answer 13

I#d like you to get involved in the solution - you'll learn more that way.

Answer 14

I see your second image gives the distance formula . I missed that.

Answer 15

as you saide AB = 500

Now the other sloped line is BC

Answer 16

Now you need to plug in the values for points B and C into the distance formula

x1 = -800 ,x2 = 400, y1 = 800, y2 = 300

-this will give you the distance from B to C

Answer 17

the distance CD and DA are easy to work out
for the vertical line Cd just subtract y coordinates - that is 800 - 0
and for DA its 800 - 0

Answer 18

You asked for your answer to be checked. I cant see any answer.

Answer 19

Okay wait.

Answer 20

finla answer is not 2600
what do you get for
each line
AB = 500
what about BC, CD and DA?

Answer 21

Is it 3,400?

Answer 22

500 + 800 + 800 + 1300

yes

Answer 23

its 3,400 i believe
