Answer:
The value of y is 6 units ⇒ 2nd answer
Step-by-step explanation:
In the attached figure
∵ ∠MTN is a right angle
∵ TU is the altitude of the triangle
- There are some rules in this triangle let us revise them
- (NT)² = NU . NM
- (MT)² = MU . MN
- (TU)² = MU . NU
- TM . TN = TU . MN
∵ NU = 9 units
∵ UM = 3 units
∵ MN = UM + NU
∴ MN = 3 + 9 = 12 units
- By using the 1st rule above
∴ (NT)² = 9 × 12
∴ (NT)² = 108
- Take a square root to both sides
∴ NT =
- Simplify the root
∴ NT = 6 units
∵ NT is y
∴ y = 6 units
The value of y is 6 units
Consider the coordinate plane:
1. The origin is the point where Sharon and Jacob started - (0,0).
2. North - positive y-direction, south - negetive y-direction.
3. East - positive x-direction, west - negative x-direction.
Then,
- if Jacob walked 3 m north and then 4 m west, the point where he is now has coordinates (-4,3);
- if Sharon walked 5 m south and 12 m east, the point where she is now has coordinates (12,-5).
The distance between two points with coordinates and
can be calculated using formula
Therefore, the distance between Jacob and Sharon is
