The equation of a line perpendicular to the line 2x − 5y = 7 is y = (-5/2)x + b

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables or numbers.

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of their slopes is equal to -1.

The slope of the line:

2x - 5y = 7

5y = 2x - 7

y = (2/5)x - 7

The slope of the line 2x - 5y = 7 is 2/5. The slope of the line perpendicular is -5/2

Hence:

The equation of a line perpendicular to the line 2x − 5y = 7 is y = (-5/2)x + b

Find out if the lengths form a right triangle

Mila [183]

Answer:

The triangle is a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since The Pythagorean Theorem only works on right triangles, we can use this knowledge to prove whether this triangle is right:

$a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\10^2 + (2\sqrt{39})^2 = 16^2\\100 + (4 \times 39) = 256\\100 + 156 = 256\\256 = 256$

Therefore, the triangle is right.

Area = length x width

Area = 3x + 5 Cm x 8 cm

Multiply each term by each term.

Area = 24x + 40 square cm
