You can put this solution on YOUR website! find all possible values for y so that (5 8) (-4 11) and (2 y) are the vertices of a right triangle and graph
--------------------
Plot the two points.
Draw the line x = 2
Determine where your 90 angle should be by finding a point on
the line that looks like it will give you a right angle.
-----
Determine the equation of each of the sides that form
the right angle. Find their point of intersection.
