Perpendicular lines have the negative reciprocal slope, so the slope of your new line will be -1/4 and the current equation will be as follows:
y = -1/4x + b
(where b is the y intercept)

to find b, plug in point A and you'll get:
2 = -1/4(16) + b
2 = -4 + b
6 = b

the equation will be:
y = -1/4x + 6

Answer:

5.7

Step-by-step explanation:

sine cosine tangent

soh cah toa

sine = opposite/hypotenuse

so sin(35)= x/10

you can multiply 10 to both sides to get rid of the 10 denominator on the right leaving you with 10sin(35)=x

be sure your calculator is in degrees.

put that into a calculator leaving you with 5.7

If the radius of a circle with a area of 5.3 mm squared is multiplied by 5,
chubhunter [2.5K]
I'm guessing the question is meant to be "<span>If the radius of a circle with a area of 5.3 mm squared is multiplied by 5, what will the new area be?", so i'll answer that.

Area of a circle =</span>πr^2

5.3=πr^2, 5.3=π(5r)^2
132.5=25πr^2
