Answer:
a = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
a² + 9² = 12²
a² + 81 = 144 ( subtract 81 from both sides )
a² = 63 ( take square root of both sides )
a = 
Answer:
y=-4/13x-28/13
Step-by-step explanation:
m=y2-y1/x2-x1
m=-4-0/6-(-7)
m=-4-0/6+7
m=-4/13
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-0=-4/13(x-(-7))
y-0=-4/13x-28/13
y=-4/13x-28/13
You can't divide by 0. It is impossible.
