Are you looking at it and \"guessing\" the type? That will not work in this case.
\n" ); document.write( "You need to use the distance (d) formula: \"d+=+sqrt%28%28x%5B1%5D+-+x%5B2%5D%29%5E2+%2B+%28y%5B1%5D+-+y%5B2%5D%29%5E2%29\" to find the length of each side (JK, JL, and KL). \n" ); document.write( "
