What is the slope of a line that is parallel to y=3/4x+2

k0ka [10]

A line that is parallel to another has exactly the same slope as the other.

so a parallel line to that line above, will have the same slope hmmm what is the slope of <span>y=3/4x+2 anyway?

well, notice, since it's already in slope-intercept form </span> $\bf y=\stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{3}{4}}x~~\stackrel{y-intercept}{+2}$

Segment AB has point A located at (4, 2). If the distance from A to B is 3 units, which of the following is the coordinate for p

olganol [36]

The distance between two points is given by:
d² = (x₂-x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²
9 = (x₂ - 4)² + (y₂ - 2)²
Now, we can check different ordered pairs in this equation to see which satisfies it:
The one that satisfies this equation is (4 , -1).

Triangle abc is an isosceles right triangle. What is the measure of one base angle? 30ş 45ş 60ş 90ş.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The acute angles of a right triangle are complementary. The base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent. If x is the measure of the base angles, this requires ...

x = 90-x . . . . . the base angle is congruent to the other base angle

2x = 90 . . . . . add x

x = 90/2 = 45 . . . . divide by 2

The measure of a base angle of an isosceles right triangle is 45°.

It can be useful to remember this fact.
