Line A passes through the points (-8, 5) and (-5, 4). Line B passes through the points (0, 1) and (4, -1). Which of the followin

g describes the relationship between line A an line B?
1. Lines A and B are parallel, because they have opposite reciprocal slopes.
2. Lines A and B are parallel, because they have the same slope
3. Lines A and B intersect, because their slopes have no relationship.
4. Lines A and B are perpendicular, because they have opposite reciprocal slopes.

\stackrel{\textit{\LARGE Line A}}{(\stackrel{x_1}{-8}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{4})} ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{4}-\stackrel{y1}{5}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{-5}-\underset{x_1}{(-8)}}} \implies \cfrac{4 -5}{-5 +8}\implies -\cfrac{1}{3} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\stackrel{\textit{\LARGE Line B}}{(\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-1})} ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-1}-\stackrel{y1}{1}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{4}-\underset{x_1}{0}}} \implies \cfrac{-1 -1}{4 +0}\implies -\cfrac{1}{2}

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, and that parallel lines have equal slopes, well, those two slopes above aren't either, so since they're neither, and they're different, that means that lines A and B intersect.

The Hundredths place because 2 is in the thousandths place. 5 or more change the score, 4 or less let it rest. 8 remained the same because 2 is less than 4.

Would you please help me? Thanks.
Butoxors [25]
The best answer is D.

According to the pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2 in a right triangle where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

The diagram given gives the length of both legs, so plug it into the equation to get c^2= 24^2+45^2
