The triangle must be isosceles, due to the perpendicular bisector. Therefore, the expression 20 - 15 can be used to yield an answer of B. 5.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Two lines are perpendicular if the first line has a slope of 
and the second line has a slope of 
.
With this information, we first need to figure out what the slope of the line is that we're given, and then we can determine what the slope of the line we're trying to find is:
We now know that 
for the first line, which means that the slope of the second line is 
. With this, we have the following equation for our new line:
where 
is the Y-intercept that we now need to determine with the coordinates given in the problem statement, 
:
Finally, we can create our line:
- 90, 50 , 40
And
60, 50, 70
The difference is 105
3^2 - 2 + 7 =
(3 x 3) - 2 + 7 =
9 - 2 + 7 = 14
5^3 - 4^2 + 10 =
( 5 x 5 x 5) - ( 4 x 4) + 10
125 - 16 + 10 = 119
119 - 14 = 105
It could be either one, depending on whether you intend to multiply or divide.
When you convert, just remember that degrees ==> less radians,
and radians ==> more degrees. Then you can always check the
results, and make sure that you used the right conversion factor
in the right direction.
