a) The equation of line k is:

b) The equation of line j is:

The equation of a line, in <u>slope-intercept formula</u>, is given by:

In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.
Item a:
- Line k intersects line m with an angle of 109º, thus:

In which
and
are the slopes of <u>k and m.</u>
- Line k goes through points (-3,-1) and (5,2), thus, it's slope is:

- The tangent of 109 degrees is

- Thus, the slope of line m is found solving the following equation:






Thus:

It goes through point (-2,6), that is, when
, and this is used to find b.





Thus. the equation of line k, in slope-intercept formula, is:

Item b:
- Lines j and k intersect at an angle of 90º, thus they are perpendicular, which means that the multiplication of their slopes is -1.
Thus, the slope of line j is:


Then

Also goes through point (-2,6), thus:



The equation of line j is:

2+x=2x-15
>> 2+15=2x-x
>> 17 = x
So the answer is <u>17</u>
(a) the given triangle is a isosceles triangle, therefore the two leg sides will be congruent, as well as the two base angles. It is given that one of the base angles ∠XYW is 70°, therefore, due to the law of a isosceles triangle, the measurement of ∠XWY is also 70°. Remember, a triangle's interior angles add up to 180°, so:
180 - (70 + 70) = 180 - 140 = 40
40° is your answer.
m∠X = 40°
(b) All sides are congruent, making it a equilateral triangle. If it is a equilateral triangle, then all the angles also have the same measurement. The total of the interior angle's measurement is 180°. Divide by the amount of angles, 3:
180/3 = 60
60° is your answer.
m∠V = 60°
