Answer:
The slope of the new road is 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
- the slope of d street line is tan(90)
[if the angle made by a line with x axis is 
then, the slope of that line will be tan() ]
- here, the angle made by the d street line with x axis is 90 degrees.
- if a road is to be built which is perpendicular to d street , it should make 0 degrees i.e, it should be parallel to x axis .
- so, the slope of new road will be tan(0) = 0
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
If I could get more context then that would help. Because an exponent being an odd number doesn’t do anything, so it could be either a negative or a positive
Let x represent the length of the shorter leg.
Longer leg: 5x +19
Hypotenuse: 5x +20
Pythagorean theorem:
.. x^2 +(5x +19)^2 = (5x +20)^2
.. x^2 +25x^2 +190x +19^2 = 25x^2 +200x +20^2 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
.. x^2 -10x -39 = 0
.. (x -13)(x +3) = 0
.. x = 13 . . . . . . . . . . leg lengths must be positive
The side length of the triangle are 13, 84, 85 feet.
