Q. 1. One line segment had endpoints A(−4,−6) and B(12,6). Another line segment has endpoints C(2,9) anda) Determine the length of AB.b) Determine the midpoint of CD.c) Determine if AB is perpendicular to CD.d) Determine the coordinates of the interse of AB and CD.
Find Length of AB: To find the length of AB, we use the distance formula: d=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2.For points A(−4, −6) and B(12, 6), we have:dAB=(12−(−4))2+(6−(−6))2dAB=(12+4)2+(6+6)2dAB=162+122dAB=256+144dAB=400dAB=20The length of AB is 20 units.
Find Midpoint of CD: To find the midpoint of CD, we use the midpoint formula: M = ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2).For points C(2, 9) and D(unknown), we cannot determine the midpoint because the coordinates of point D are not given. Therefore, we cannot complete this step.
