4. 2. Graph the Equation Window= [-1,10] by [-1,10]

5. 3. Put Point and Tommy on Graph Window= [-1,10] by [-1,10] Anywhere on line Tommy is at (7,0)

6. 4. Put Triangle on Graph Window= [-1,10] by [-1,10]

7. 5. Label Sides of Triangle Window= [-1,10] by [-1,10] y x 7-x D

8. 6. Solve for D Window= [-1,10] by [-1,10] y x 7-x D Using Pythagorean Theorem… D= y ²+(7-x) ²

9. 7. Put 0.5x ² in for y Window= [-1,10] by [-1,10] y x 7-x D Using Pythagorean Theorem… D= y ²+(7-x) ² D= (0.5x²)²+(7-x)²

10. 8. Put D= (0.5x²)²+(7-x)² in Calculator
