Q. A triangle has vertices on a coordinate grid at J(9,4),K(9,3) J(9,4), K(9,-3) , and L(4,3) L(4,-3) . What is the length, in units, of JK \overline{J K} ?\newlineAnswer: \square units
  1. Identify Coordinates: Identify the coordinates of points JJ and KK. Point JJ has coordinates (9,4)(9,4) and point KK has coordinates (9,3)(9,-3).
  2. Recognize Vertical Line: Recognize that JK\overline{JK} is a vertical line segment because the xx-coordinates of JJ and KK are the same. Since the xx-coordinates are the same, we can find the length of JK\overline{JK} by calculating the difference in the yy-coordinates.
  3. Calculate Length: Calculate the length of bar(JKJK).\newlineThe length of bar(JKJK) is the absolute value of the difference between the yy-coordinates of JJ and KK.\newlineLength of bar(JKJK) = 4(3)=4+3=7|4 - (-3)| = |4 + 3| = 7 units
