The correct Answer is:
To find the equation of side AB of triangle ABC with vertices A(0, 1) and B(2, 0), we can use the two-point form of the equation of a line. ### Step-by-step solution: 1. **Identify the coordinates of points A and B**: - A(0, 1) → (x1, y1) = (0, 1) - B(2, 0) → (x2, y2) = (2, 0) 2. **Use the two-point form of the equation of a line**: The equation of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) can be expressed as: \[ y - y_1 = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}(x - x_1) \] 3. **Substitute the coordinates into the equation**: \[ y - 1 = \frac{0 - 1}{2 - 0}(x - 0) \] Simplifying the right side: \[ y - 1 = \frac{-1}{2}x \] 4. **Rearranging the equation**: To eliminate the fraction, multiply both sides by 2: \[ 2(y - 1) = -x \] Expanding this gives: \[ 2y - 2 = -x \] 5. **Rearranging to standard form**: Adding x to both sides: \[ x + 2y - 2 = 0 \] Thus, the equation can be written as: \[ x + 2y = 2 \] ### Final Answer: The equation of side AB of triangle ABC is: \[ x + 2y = 2 \]
