Hello! I am a mom trying (proactively) to help my son.... Here's the problem I'm looking at
A special right triangle has a hypotenuse that is 13 units long, one side of length 5 units and another side of x units. The unknown side has one endpoint at (1,3). If the side with length x lines on a vertical line, what is a midpoint of that side of triangle?
These are practice problems with multiple choice answers, but it's been awhile.... Can someone help me figure this out?
Thank you!
