Answer:

b.) 2

Explanation:

Parallel slopes have same slope.

Perpendicular slopes have negatively inverse slope.

$\sf Here \ given \ equation: y = -\dfrac{1}{2} x - 6$

Comparing it with slope intercept form, "y = mx + b" where m is slope.

Here parallel slope: -1/2

Perpendicular slope: -(-1/2)⁻¹ = 2

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin \: 45 \degree = \frac{BC}{6 \sqrt{2} } \\ \\ \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} } = \frac{BC}{6 \sqrt{2} } \\ \\ BC = 6 \\ \\ \cos \: 60 \degree = \frac{x}{BC } \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} = \frac{x}{6 } \\ \\ x = \frac{6}{2} \\ \\ x = 3$
