To find the distances between the points, we can use the distance formula:
The distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula:
d = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
KM:K(-2, 2) and M(4, -1)d = √((4 - (-2))^2 + (-1 - 2)^2)d = √(6^2 + (-3)^2)d = √(36 + 9)d = √45d ≈ 6.71
LM:L(0, 7) and M(4, -1)d = √((4 - 0)^2 + (-1 - 7)^2)d = √(4^2 + (-8)^2)d = √(16 + 64)d = √80d ≈ 8.94
LK:L(0, 7) and K(-2, 2)d = √((-2 - 0)^2 + (2 - 7)^2)d = √((-2)^2 + (-5)^2)d = √(4 + 25)d = √29d ≈ 5.39
Therefore,KM ≈ 6.71LM ≈ 8.94LK ≈ 5.39
