Answer:

Properties of a right tangle can be created in a Coordinate Plane

Distance between two points A and B are shown as below

Explanation:

Find distance between two point using Pythagorean Theorem.

Properties of right triangles and creating right triangle as a coordinate Plane.

Suppose two point are drawn in triangle containing value of (-2 , 4 ) and (-2, -2)

then

In (-2 , 4 ) and (-2,-2)

taking y-values that is 4 and -2

find difference between them such as

4-(-2) = 6

Distance is (-2,4) is 6 unit from (-2,-2)

We can also find unit length of A and B

Side A: (-1, 2) and (3,2)

3-(-2) = 5

side A is 5 unit in length

Side B : (-2,2) and (-2,-1)

2 - (-1) = 3

Side B is 3 unit in length
