Y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -56
(8,-4)...x1 = 8 and y1 = -4
now we sub...pay close attention to ur signs
y - (-4) = -56(x - 8)....not finished yet
y + 4 = -56(x - 8) <===

In triangle XYZ. the measurements of angle X and angle Y are 45° Which is the longest side of the triangle

ipn [44]

Answer:

the side XY

Step-by-step explanation:

we know 2 angles in a triangle. but are 45 degrees.

that means the third angle Z is 180-45-45 = 90 degrees.

the side opposite of the largest angle is the longest side.

opposite of Z is the side XY.

Write an equation perpendicular to the line y = 3x + 5 through the point (6, -5). State your answer as y=mx+b.

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

y=(-1/3) x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A line that is perpendicular to it has a slope that is an opposite reciprocal, which in this case is -1/3. Now you use point slope form which is y-y1=m(x-x1) that would be y+5=-1/3(x-6). Distribute the -1/3 and get y+5= -1/3 x+ 2. Subtract 5 from both sides and get y=-1/3 x - 3

Find the lengths of x <br><br> I tried everything I still got it wrong

Arlecino [84]

if the degrees in this triangle are truly 90-45-45, then the two unknown lengths are the same

and the pythagorean theorem holds anyways: a² + b² = c², where c is the longest side in a right triangle.

c is 16, so 16² is 256

2* a² = 256

I wrote 2 times s because a and b are of same length

devide each side by 2

a² = 128

take the root

a and b are:

$\sqrt{128} = 11.31378499$
