find the length and the slope of each side of the triangle below. then, find the coordinates of the midpoint of each side. when the slope is undefined, write undefined in the response box.

Respuesta :

The triangle has three side x,y and √(x²+y²), the slope of x is zero, the slope of y is undefined, the slope of √(x²+y²) is tanα. The coordinate of the midpoint of x is x/2,0 and y is 0, y/2

how to determine the length and slope of the side of a triangle?

suppose the triangle is right-angled and the sum of other two angles are also 90 degrees. we know that the side opposite to the right angle is called hypotenuse. let the other two side is denoted by x and y. Now, x is the base of triangle, and the rest of the side is y. The angle between hypotenuse and base is denoted by α . As per Pythagorean theorem, hypotenuse = √(x²+y²).

slope can be calculated by tanα or using the formula (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

according to trigonometric ratio, tanα = opposite side/base = x/y

 tanα is the slope of hypotenuse.

the side length x is along the horizontal axis, so its y coordinate is zero and slope is also zero.

the side length y is along the vertical axis whose x coordinate is zero that means slope is undefined.

When does a slope is defined?

As per the formula (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) used to calculate slope, whenever x coordinate is zero the result is written as undefined.

hence, the triangle is right-angled, and the biggest side has a slope only.
