Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary). (-6, 6) and (-3,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for distance is:

Where (x₁, y) and (x₂, y₂) are the points.

We are given (-6, 6) and (-3, 3). If we match the value and its corresponding variable, we see that:

x₁= -6 y₁ = 6 x₂ = -3 y₂ = 3

Substitute the values into the formula.

Solve inside the parentheses.

-3 --6 = -3+6 = 33-6 = -3

Solve the exponents.

(3)²= 3*3= 9 (-3)²= -3*-3 =9

Add.

Round to the nearest tenth. The 4 in the hundredth place tells us to leave the 2 in the tenth place.

The distance between the two points is apprximately 4.2

Intersecting secant-tangent theorem states that if a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.so to break it down: 1. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p.sr = 21rp = 3x + 3pq = 4x + 4following to equation: tangent squared = the two segments multiplied by each otherso (4x + 4) ^ 2 = (3x + 3) • (21) simplifies to 16x^2 - 31x - 47 = 0 or (16x - 47)(x + 1) x = -1 or x = 47/162. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p (again! )sr = 16rp = xpq = 15(15) ^ 2 = 16 • x225 = 16xx = 225/163. the interesting chords are proportional to each other so a ratio is possible to set up: ap dp 10 3 + x = = —— = pc pb 8 xcross multiple to get 10x = (3 + x)(8)x = 12
