Line A is parallel to line B if line A and B have the same slope and have the same or different y-intercept.

Convert the standard form equation to slope-intercept form as it will be easier to see the slope.

Solve for y.

4x + 2y = 0
2y = -4x <-- Subtract 4x from each side
y = -2x <-- Divide both sides by 2

In the slope-intercept form y = -2x, a y-intercept of 0 is implied

Now find a slope-intercept form equation that has the same slope as y = -2x

So, the answer is C y = -2x + 3.

Convert to slope - intercept form:-
2y = -4x
y = -2x so the slope of this line is -2

parallel lines have same slope

So its C.

Two people are standing on opposite sides of a hill. Person A makes an angle of elevation of 65° with the top of the hill and pe

8090 [49]

Answer:

Option 3. 71 ft. is the distance between B and top of the hill.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the hill is h ft and the distance of A from the hill be x ft and distance from B to hill is y.

It is given distance between A and B is 45 ft. ∠BAO = 65° and ∠ABO = 80°.

We have to find the distance of B from the top of the hill.

Now from ΔACO $tan 65 = \frac{h}{45-x} = 2.14$

$h=2.14(45-x)$

From ΔBCO $tan80 = \frac{h}{x} = 5.67$

h = 5.67x

Now h = 5.67x = 2.14(45-x)

5.67x = 96.3 - 2.14x

2.14x + 5.67x = 96.3

7.81x = 96.3

x = 96.3/7.81 = 12.33 ft

Therefore $cos80 = \frac{x}{OB}$

$0.174 = \frac{12.33}{OB}$

$OB = \frac{12.33}{.174}=70.86=71ft.$

Therefore 71 ft is the distance between B and the top of the hill.

The longest side of an acute triangle measures 30 inches. The two remaining sides are congruent, but their length is

qwelly [4]

Answer:

(C)72.4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an acute triangle in which the longest side measures 30 inches; and the other two sides are congruent.

Consider the attached diagram

AB=BC=x

However to be able to solve for x, we form a right triangle with endpoints A and C.

Since the hypotenuse is always the longest side in a right triangle

Hypotenuse, AC=30 Inches

Using Pythagoras Theorem

$30^2=x^2+x^2\\900=2x^2\\x^2=450\\x=\sqrt{450}\\x=21.21$ inches$

Therefore, the smallest possible perimeter of the triangle

Perimeter=2x+30

=2(21.21)+30

=42.42+30

=72.4 Inches (rounded to the nearest tenth)
