Answer:

set two equation of line y=ax+b and y=cx+d

when these two lines are perpendicular to each other, then a*c=(-1)

set answer is y=ax+b

we can know that a=1/6

bring in a=1/6 and(-4,5)

5=(1/6)*(-4)+b

=>5=(-2/3)=b

=>b=5 2/3

answer is y=(1/6)x+5 2/3

Mama L [17]

The measure off DF is 11.

In a circle inscribed within a triangle, the distance from each vertex of the triangle to the two nearest touchpoints (points of tangency on the circle) are equal. Since SD=4, DT=4 as well. Since UF=7, then FT=7.

DF=DT+TF=4+7=11.
