Figure lmno is a rectangle. The slope of LM is -1/2. What are the slopes of MN and OL?

The slope would be 2 because the sides would have to be perpendicular to each other since it is a rectangle and to get the perpendicular slope, you get the opposite reciprocal of -1/2 which is 2. (drawing it out helps)

Answer:

The slopes of these other two segments would be 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find these slopes, you need to know that rectangles have right angles. Given this fact, we know these segments are perpendicular to the given segment. This means that we take the current slope (-1/2), we flip it, (-2) and negate it (2) to get the new slope.

Find the length of side y

Serggg [28]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=76.3359\ cm\approx76.3\ cm}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use cosine:

$cosine=\dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

We have

$adjacent=73\ cm\\hypotenuse=y$

and the angle 17°.

$\cos17^o\approx0.9563$

Substitute:

$\dfrac{73}{y}=0.9563$ convert the decimal to the fraction

$\dfrac{73}{y}=\dfrac{9563}{10000}$ cross multiply

$9563y=730000$ divide both sides by 9563

$y=\dfrac{730000}{9563}$

$y\approx76.3359$

Why is estimation useful when finding actual products and solving real-world problems?

It's Cause We Study Real-World-Problems Without Education We wouldn't learn anything so its good to study independently so our brains can grow!

Assistance if you please?

Answer:

38°

Step-by-step explanation:

a whole circle is equal to 360 degrees so if 52 +90= 142 the opposite side also equals 142 because they are clearly the same size. ED and AB are also the same sizes. if 360- (142+142) = 284. then you will have to divide 284 by 2. so 284÷2=76 and 76÷2=38°

hope you understand, I not that good at explaining things

also I don't know what the m means in mED

Y-2=-3(x-7) written in standard form

uysha [10]

Y=2-3(x-7)
You just add +2 to each side and the positive and negative cancel out and it switches it over
