Question

use the figure below to answer questions #4 - 7.
anthony claims that \\( \triangle k l m \\) is an isosceles triangle.
what is the length of side lm?
round side length to the nearest hundredth (two decimal places)

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the coordinates of points \(L\) and \(M\)

Assume \(L(x_1,y_1)\) and \(M(x_2,y_2)\). From the grid (assuming standard coordinate - grid where each square has side - length \(1\)), if \(L(- 3,6)\) and \(M(0,1)\)

Step2: Use the distance formula \(d=\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2+(y_2 - y_1)^2}\)

Substitute \(x_1=-3,y_1 = 6,x_2 = 0,y_2=1\) into the formula:

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Step3: Calculate the numerical value

\(\sqrt{34}\approx6.40\) (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

Answer:

$6.40$
