Question 1052239: Prove or disprove that Segment AB ~= Segment BC
A (-2,0)
B (10, -14)
C (-4, -2)

The length of the segment AB = where x2 = 10 ,
x1 = -2, y2 = -14 and y1 = 0
AB =
AB =
AB = = AB =
The length of the segment BC = where
x2 = 10 , x1 = -4, y2 = -14 and y1 = -2
BC =
BC =
BC =
BC = = BC =
So we can see that the lengths of the two segments are the same at
Since the segments are the same length Segment AB ~= Segment BC
