Point S (not shown) lies above the x-axis such that \(\Delta RST\) has area equal to 6.
Quantity A |
Quantity B |
The x-coordinate of point S |
The y-coordinate of point S |
A)The quantity in Column A is greater.
B)The quantity in Column B is greater.
C)The two quantities are equal.
D)The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
Since the area is given, so we can find the altitude
Now the base of the △RST = 4
therefore
\(\frac{1}{2} * 4 * Altitude = 6\)
or \(Altitude = 3\).
Now from all the given value, we cannot find the value of x and y
The △RST can be a right angled triangle, where x = 1 and y= 3 or x = 5 and y = 3.
These both values holds good when altitude =3
Hence the option is D
