BO is double that of DO. In other words, BO is two times longer than DO. The answer is choice B
For example, if DO were 3 units long, then BO would be 6 units long (2*3 = 6). This works because the triangles DCO and BAO are similar triangles. The corresponding sides are in the same ratio or proportion to one another. The larger triangle (BAO) has sides that are twice as long as the smaller triangle's (DCO) corresponding sides.
Side note: we can prove the triangles to be similar using the AA (angle angle) similarity theorem. The first pair of angles are the vertical angles DOC and BOA which are congruent to each other.The second pair is CDB and ABD which are congruent by the alternate interior angle theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the equation of the line that goes through: !6,-10) and is perpendicular to the line
Let's simplify the equation of the line to get:
The slope of this line is -5.
The perpendicular to this line has a slope of
The equation going through (6,-10) is
We substitute to get;
Expand;
