Asked by ceasar

Three points A,B and C have coordinates (1,0),(4,4) and (13,5) respectively.
1.By how many units does the length of AC exceed the length of AB
2.What is the slope of BC

1. The length of AC is
sqrt[(13-1)^2 + (5-0)^2]
= sqrt169 = 13
The length of AB is
sqrt[(4-1)^2 + (4-0)^2]
= sqrt(25) = 5
The difference in lengths is 8.

2. BC slope = delty/deltax
= (5-4)/(13-4) = 1/9
