Answer:

  • k = 18

=========

<h2>Given</h2>

<h3>Line 1</h3>
  • 3x - ky + 7 = 0

<h3>Line 2</h3>
  • Passing through the points (4, 3) and (5, - 3)

<h2>To find</h2>

  • The value of k, if the lines are perpendicular

<h2>Solution</h2>

We know the perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, that is the product of their slopes is - 1.

Find the slope of line 1 by converting the equation into slope-intercept from standard form:

<u><em>Info:</em></u>

  • <em>standard form is ⇒ ax + by + c = 0, </em>
  • <em>slope - intercept form is ⇒ y = mx + b, where m is the slope</em>

  • 3x - ky + 7 = 0
  • ky = 3x + 7
  • y = (3/k)x + 7/k

Its slope is 3/k.

Find the slope of line 2, using the slope formula:

  • m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (-3 - 3)/(5 - 4) = - 6/1 = - 6

We have both the slopes now. Find their product:

  • (3/k)*(- 6) = - 1
  • - 18/k = - 1
  • k = 18

So when k is 18, the lines are perpendicular.

I. Tell whether each statement is TRUE or FALSE. Refer to the figure below. Write your answer on the space provided.
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

1. TRUE

2. TRUE

3. TRUE

4. TRUE

5. FALSE

6. TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

1. From the diagram, we have that m∠2 and m∠7 are alternate interior angles

If m∠2 = 70° and m∠7 = 70°, then we have;

m∠2 = 70° = m∠7

m∠2 = m∠7

Therefore, the alternate interior angles of the lines l₁, and l₂ are equal, and therefore, the lines l₁ and l₂ are parallel, l₁ ║ l₂

TRUE

2. If m∠3 = 90° and m∠7 = 90°, therefore, the angle formed by the intersection of l₃ and l₂ = 90°

Therefore l₃ ⊥ l₂

TRUE

3. m∠5 and m∠7 are corresponding angles

If m∠5 = 85° and m∠7 = 85°, then, m∠5 = m∠7

Therefore, the corresponding angles formed by the lines l₁ and l₂ are equal, therefore;

l₁ ║ l₂

TRUE

4. Whereby we have, m∠1 = m∠5, we get;

m∠1 + m∠5 = 180° by sum of angles on a straight line

∴ m∠1 + m∠5 = m∠1 + m∠1 = 2·m∠1 = 180°

m∠1 = 180°/2 = 90°

∴ m∠1 = 90° = m∠5, and l₃ ⊥ l₁

TRUE

5. m∠1 and m∠8 are alternate exterior angles

If m∠1 = 98° and m∠8 = 82°

∴ m∠1 ≠ m∠8 and l₁ ∦ l₈

FALSE

6. Given that l₁║ l₂, then the angle formed between l₁ and l₃ will be equal to th angle formed between l₂ and l₃

Therefore;

If l₁║ l₂, and l₃ ⊥ l₁, then l₃ ⊥ l₂

(If l₁║ l₂, and l₃ is perpendicular to l₁, then l₃ is also perpendicular to l₂)

TRUE
