If a (- 2,0) and B (- 4,5) are known in the plane rectangular coordinate system, we can find a point C on the x-axis to make the triangle ABC The area of the road is 6

If a (- 2,0) and B (- 4,5) are known in the plane rectangular coordinate system, we can find a point C on the x-axis to make the triangle ABC The area of the road is 6

Let the X coordinate of C be x, then point C be C (x, 0). We know that if the area of triangle is the base multiplied by the height divided by 2, then | AC | * 5 / 2 = 6,
The solution is (x + 2) = 12 / 5 or - (x + 2) = 12 / 5
The solution is x = 2 / 5 or x = - 22 / 5,
C (2 / 5,0) or C (- 22 / 5,0)
