Answer:  The correct option is (C)  Rotated parallel lines always remain parallel lines.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given ton select the correct statement about the rotation of two parallel lines.

We know that two parallel lines have same slope.

So, let m = 2 be the slope of the two parallel lines and 4, 7 are the y-intercepts.

Then, the equations of the lines are given by

y=2x+4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\y=2x+7~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

Let us rotate the lines through an angle of 90° clockwise.

The co-ordinates of the point (x, y), after rotating 90° clockwise becomes (y, -x).

We have

P(-1, 2) and Q(1, 6) are two points on the line (i) and R(-1, 5) and S(1, 9) are two points on the line (ii).

So, after rotation, they become

P(-1, 2)  ⇒  P'(2, 1),

Q(1, 6) ⇒  Q'(6, -1),

R(-1, 5)  ⇒  R'(5, 1),

S(1, 9)  ⇒  S'(9, -1).

So, slope of line (i) is

m_1=\dfrac{-1-1}{6-2}=-\dfrac{1}{2},

and the slope of line (ii) is

m_2=\dfrac{-1-1}{9-5}=-\dfrac{1}{2}.

Since, m_1=m_2,

so the slopes of the lines after rotation is again same, and hence they are again parallel to each other.

So, the angle of rotation (90° or 180° or 360°)does not matter, the parallel lines will always be parallel.

Thus, the rotated parallel lines always remain parallel lines.

Option (C) is correct.

C.
Rotating parallel lines by the same amount does not change their parallel nature.

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

9. A. -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug the points into the equation y2-y1/x2-x1. In this case, I chose the points (0,-2) and (4,-3). This would make the equation -3--2/4-0. This would be equal to -3+2/4 or -1/4. Therefore, the slope is -1/4.

What is the area of this whole figure in square units?
IrinaK [193]
Well, it is a good and interesting question

Such areas could be calculated in a single shoot and also by dividing the whole shape into other shapes and the total area would be the sum of these areas

I prefer the way of a single shoot ...

The figure represents a trapezoid:
its lower base = 21 units
its upper base = 12 units
the normal height between them = 8 units

NOW

The area of a trapezoid = [(sum of bases' lengths) ÷ 2] * height
                                       = [(12 + 21) ÷ 2] * 8 = 132 sq units


Hope that helps
