The slope of the line is the gradient, which you can find through rise over run
m (gradient) = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2)
where (x1, y1) is the coordinate of the first point, and (x2, x2) is the coordinate of the second point
in your question:
x1 = -4
x2 = 19
y1 = -13
y2 = 11
m = (-13 -11) / (-4 -19) = -24 / -23 = 24/23 or 1.04 (2d.p.)
hope that helps :)
Answer:
x = 15.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Because this is a right triangle, you can use the pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse. the theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
so
9^2 + 12.5^2 = c^2
solving this will give you 15.4
height = tan(11) x 210
height = 40.81 yards
rounded to nearest tenth = 40.8 yards
The answer to the equation is X= 27
