Based on the shortest leg of the triangle illustrated, if a similar triangle on the coordinate plane has its shortest leg defined by the points (-1, 6) and (0, 6), what is the third point?

First step is to get rid of the square root. remember that a square root is the same as raising to the (1/2) power. see below: multiply exponents per exponent rules to get: remember you subtract exponents from the denominator and add exponents in the numerator so: simplify further: so a is the correct choice. if you don't understand this google exponent rules and it will you understand. look at the image results.
