Perpendicular means that the slopes are negartive inverses, aka
slope1 times slope2=-1
y=mx+b
slope=m
y=-1/2x-2
slope=-1/2
we need to find negative inverse
-1/2 times what=-1
answer is 2
y=2x+b
input the point (2,-2) to find b
(x,y)
(2,-2)
-2=2(2)+b
-2=4+b
minus 4 from both sides
-6=b
y=2x-6
the equtaion is y=2x-6
Answer:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment
Required
Determine the slope of the line
From the attachment, we have the following points
and
The slope m is then calculated using:
Substitute values for the x's and y's
<em>Hence, the slope is 0</em>
Answer:
4.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2x + 3
-1 = -2(2) + 3
-1 = -4 + 3
-1 = -1
y = x - 3
-1 = 2 - 3
-1 = -1
This is a rhombus and in any rhombus, the diagonals intersects in the middle and they are perpendicular:
So all 4 triangles are right triangles and the sides are the hypotenuses.
1st) Calculate the sides: hypotenuse² = 3² + 4² = 25, and hypotenuse = 5
The area of each right triangle is (4 x 3)/2 = 6 units²
And the area of the 4 right triangles = 4 x 6 = 24 init²
