How is the pythagorean theorem related to the distance formula? explain.

Both formulas can be used to find the distance between two points on the coordinate plane. The vertical leg of the right triangle represents the difference in the y values of the two points. The horizontal leg of the right triangle represents the difference in the x values of the two points. The hypotenuse of the right triangle represents the distance between the two points.

Step-by-step explanation:

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.
