A right triangle was graphed on a coordinate plane using the coordinates (2, 4) , (6, 4) , and (6, 10) . What is the length of the base of the triangle?(1 point)
cm
The length of the base of the triangle can be found by calculating the distance between the points (2, 4) and (6, 4).
Using the distance formula:
d = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
d = √((6 - 2)^2 + (4 - 4)^2)
d = √(4^2 + 0^2)
d = √16
d = 4
Therefore, the length of the base of the triangle is 4 units.
