Two right triangles 2008-02-18
From Amy:
Hi, I have a problem that has me stumped.
There are two right triangles that share the same adjacent side (AB) which is 240'. The right angles of each triangle are at the opposite ends of the shared side.
The Opposite side (AC) of Triangle ABC is 180'
and the Hypotenuse (CB) is 300'.
The Opposite side (BD) of Triangle ABD is 100'
and the Hypotenuse (AD) is 260'.
How do I figure out where the hypotenuses intersect?

Is this a right triangle? 2000-12-08
From Alicia:
How would you set-up and answer a problem like these one? Triangle ABC has vertices A(-2,2), B(1,-2), and C (1,2). Use slopes to determine if the triangle is a right triangle.
