Unit 2, Day 15

- Finish the Distance and Midpoint Worksheet if you

have not done so already

- Find the other endpoint of the line segment with the given
endpoint and midpoint and find the distance between the
endpoints. Graph both endpoints and midpoint to check your
answer.
Endpoint: (6, 3), midpoint: (-3, 1)

Pythagorean Theorem - Application

The foot of a ladder is placed 6 feet from a
wall. If the top of the ladder rests 8 feet up
on the wall, how long is the ladder?

Application Solution

c ft.
er

d
ad

8 ft.
House

Ground

6 ft.

Application Solution

c ft.
er

d
ad

8 ft.
House

Ground

6 ft.

Application Solution Contd.

Since the hypotenuse is 10 ft. we know that
the length of the ladder is 10 ft.
