What is the length of segment ab? a coordinate plane is shown. point a is located at 6, 2, and point b is located at 0, 10. the points are connected by a line segment.

To solve this problem we will need the distance formula between two points with coordinates P1(x1,y1) and P2(x2,y2).

Distance formula

Distance = sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)

=sqrt((0-6)^2+(10-2)^2)

=sqrt(36+64)

=sqrt(100)

=10 units.

11.2

step-by-step explanation:

when doing tangent the tangent of the angle is equal to the opposite side from the angle over the adjacent side to the angle.

tan43 = x / 12

move 12 over by multiplying each side by 12

12tan43 = x

x = about 11.2
