If `A(1,-1), B(0,4), C(-5,3)` are vertices of a triangle, then find the slope of each side.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`A(1,-1),B(0,4)` and `C(-5,3)`
Slope of side `AB=(4-(-1))/(0-1)`
`=(4+1)/(-1)`
`=5/(-1)`
`=-5`
Slope of side AB is `-5`
Slope of side `BC=(3-4)/(-5-0)`
`=(-1)/(-5)=1/5`
Slope of side BC is `1/5`
Slope of side `AC=(3-(-1))/(-5-1)`
`=(3+1)/(-6)`
`=4/(-6)`
`=(-2)/3`
Slope of side `AC=-2/3`
Slope of side aB is `-5`, slope of side BC is `1/5` and slope of side AC is `-2/3`.
