The lines below are perpendicular if the slope of the green line is 2/3 what is the slope do the red line

Hey there!

When we know the slope of the line and we want a perpendicular line, we follow a specific rule.

We use the <em>opposite of the reciprocal</em> of the slope given.

Therefore, slope of 3 would give -1/3, slope of 1/2 would be -2, and so on.

Therefore, if we were to have a slope of 2/3, we take the opposite of the reciprocal to get -3/2.

I don't think your answer is here. If the lines are perpendicular, that has to be the answer; but do let me know if I made a mistake and I'd be glad to talk to you about this problem :)

Hope this helps!

\[f(x)=\sqrt{x ^4-16x ^{2}}\]
marusya05 [52]
f ( x ) =  \sqrt{ x^{4} -16 x^{2} }
a ) The domain:
x^4 - 16 x² ≥ 0
x² ( x² - 16 ) ≥ 0
x² - 16 ≥ 0
x² ≥ 16
x ∈ ( - ∞, - 4 ] ∪ [ 4 , + ∞ )
b ) f ` ( x ) = \frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x ^{4}-16 x^{2}  } } *  ( x^{4}-16 x^{2} )` =
= ( 2 x³ - 16 x ) / √(x^4 - 16 x²)
c ) The slope of the tangent line at x = 5:
f ` ( 5 ) = ( 2 * 125 - 16 * 5 ) / √ ( 625 - 400 ) = 170 / 15 = 34 / 3
The slope of the line normal to the graph at x = 5:
m = - 3 / 34

The two triangles are similar.
Neko [114]

Given that the triangles are similar.

When triangles are similar, all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.

Similarly in the given triangles, the ratio of the corresponding sides are equal.

\frac{8}{2x-2}= \frac{8+6}{3x}

\frac{8}{2x-2}= \frac{14}{3x}

Cross multiplying, we get

8 \times 3x = 14 \times (2x-2)

24x = 28x-28

-4x = -28

Dividing both sides of the equation by -4.

So, we get

x = 7.
