The coordinates a(2, 1), b(7, 1), c(2, 4) form what type of polygon? a. an acute triangle b. an obtuse triangle c. a right triangle d. an isosceles triangle

 The correct option is (C) a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:  The given co-ordinates of a polygon are A(2, 1), B(7, 1), C(2, 4).

We are to select the correct type of the polygon.

Since we have the co-ordinates of the three points A, B and C, so the polygon will surely be a triangle.

Now, the lengths of the three sides AB, BC and CA of ΔABC can be calculated using distance formula as follows :

We have

This implies that

which is the Pythagorean triple. Hence, triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle.

Thus, (C) is the correct option.

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}
