slope is 1/3

Explanation:\text{The given points: (-5,4) and (1, 6)}

We apply the slope formula:

slope=m\text{ = }\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\begin{gathered} x_1=-5,y_1=4,x_2=1,y_2\text{ = }6 \\ m\text{ = }\frac{6\text{ - 4}}{1\text{ - (-5)}} \\ m\text{ }=\text{ }\frac{2}{1+5} \\  \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} m\text{ = 2/6} \\ m\text{ = 1/3} \\  \\ \text{Hence, slope is 1/3} \end{gathered}

Given: ZDEF is a right angle. Using a paragraph proof, prove 41 is acute.
Slav-nsk [51]

Let G be some point on the diagonal line away from point E.

Angle DEG represents angle 1.

We're given that angle DEF is a right angle which means it's 90 degrees. Angle DEG is some angle smaller than 90 degrees. By definition, that must mean angle 1 is acute. Any acute angle is smaller than 90 degrees. There's not much else to say other than this is just a definition problem.

----------------

Extra side notes:

If angle 1 was a right angle, then that would mean angle GEF would have to be 0 degrees; however the diagram shows this isn't the case.

If angle 1 was obtuse, then there's no way we'd be able to fit it into angle DEF. In other words, there's no way to have an angle larger than 90 fit in a 90 degree angle.

My last function question. Please break this down for me. Brainliest answer will be given
cupoosta [38]
Remember these two combinations: logab=loga+logb, log(a/b)=loga-logb
3logx=logx^3
(1/2)log(x+2)=log(x+2)^(1/2)
2log(z-4)=log(z-4)^2
so the given expression can be combined into log{[(x^3)(z-4)^2]/(x+2)^(1/2)}
