If triangle COA has coordinates C(10,1), A(3, -4) and O (d, 3), determine the value of d so that the triangle is a right triangle with hypotenuse OC. Show algebraic work.


My brain isn't working so I am having trouble getting started on this one...any hints?

You run TD and can’t afford an Asian math tutor for your kid?

Just plot out A, O and C.

Then a squared plus b squared equal c squared, for the missing point

..thats where it gets tricky.

All you need to know is addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Unless you're wanting to be an architect, or some shite that requires more.
