Answer:


√(106) is the length of AT

Explanation:

To find the length of AT you have to use the distance formula which is
d=\sqrt{(x_(2)-x_(1) )^(2) +(y_(2)-y_(1) )^(2) }

So we have the points (0,0) and (5,9)

All we have to do is substitute the points into the equation


d=\sqrt{(5_{}-0_{} )^(2) +(9_{}-0_{} )^(2) }

You then get


d=\sqrt{(5 )^(2) +(9 )^(2) }

Then square the values and then add them


d=√((25 ) +(81 ))


d=√(106)

Then simplify what is in the radical, in this case that is all you can do

Your final answer is
d=√(106)
