The equation of a line of the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
If two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.
We have the following line:
Thus, the slope of the line is -5.
Therefore a parallel line is of the form:
We replace the point
Finally, the equation is of the form:
Answer:
First lets see the pythagorean identities
So if we have to solve for sin theta , first we move cos theta to left side and then take square root to both sides, that is
Now we need to check the sign of sin theta
First we have to remember the sign of sin, cos , tan in the quadrants. In first quadrant , all are positive. In second quadrant, only sin and cosine are positive. In third quadrant , only tan and cot are positive and in the last quadrant , only cos and sec are positive.
So if theta is in second quadrant, then we have to positive sign but if theta is in third or fourth quadrant, then we have to use negative sign .
Check the picture below.
since we know that x = 3/7, we can then plug that on either of the twin legs, since it's an isosceles, and get the length of each leg, so say let's plug it in 5x + 16
