find slope of the altitude on each side of triangle ABC (d) A(-2,-3), B(3,6), C(-5,5)letter d) question 3)

Graphing the points that make up the triangle you have
Now, to obtain the slope of each side of the triangle you can use the slope formula, that is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\ \text{ Where m is the slope of the line and} \\ (x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)\text{ are two points through which the line passes} \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the slope of segment AB will be
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=(x_1,y_1)=(-2,-3) \\ B=(x_2,y_2)=(3,6) \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{6-(-3)}{3-(-2)} \\ m=\frac{6+3}{3+2} \\ m=\frac{9}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]The slope of segment BC will be
[tex]\begin{gathered} B=(x_1,y_1)=(3,6) \\ C=(x_2,y_2)=(-5,5) \\ m=\frac{5-6}{-5-3} \\ m=\frac{-1}{-8} \\ m=\frac{1}{8} \end{gathered}[/tex]The slope of segment AC will be
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=(x_1,y_1)=(-2,-3) \\ C=(x_2,y_2)=(-5,5) \\ m=\frac{5-(-3)}{-5-(-2)} \\ m=\frac{5+3}{-5+2} \\ m=\frac{8}{-3} \\ m=-\frac{8}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the slope of each side of the triangle ABC is
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ The slope of segment AB is }\frac{9}{5} \\ \text{ The slope of segment BC is }\frac{1}{8} \\ \text{ The slope of segment AC is }\frac{-8}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]
