Answer: c is perpendicular to y = -5x - 2
Explanation: The slope of a perpendicular line is an opposite reciprocal of the original slope/line. (Basically switch the numerator and denominator and the sign. In this case, the slope is -5/1x. It’s opposite reciprocal is 1/5x.)
You can take a look at my notes for further clarification. Hope this helps!

The sides of the triangle are given as 1, x, and x².
The principle of triangle inequality requires that the sum of the lengths of any two sides should be equal to, or greater than the third side.
Consider 3 cases
Case (a): x < 1,
Then in decreasing size, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
We require that x² + x ≥ 1
Solve x² + x - 1 =
x = 0.5[-1 +/- √(1+4)] = 0.618 or -1.618.
Reject the negative length.
Therefore, the lengths are 0.382, 0.618 and 1.
Case (b): x = 1
This creates an equilateral triangle with equal sides
The sides are 1, 1 and 1.
Case (c): x>1
In increasing order, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
We require that x + 1 ≥ x²
Solve x² - x - 1 = 0
x = 0.5[1 +/- √(1+4)] = 1.6118 or -0.618
Reject the negative answr.
The lengths are 1, 1.618 and 2.618.
Answer:
The possible lengths of the sides are
(a) 0.382, 0.618 and 1
(b) 1, 1 and 1.
(c) 2.618, 1.618 and 1.
We can either convert them to decimals or to fractions
if decimals
2/3=0.66666666
4/5=8/10=0.8
so the order is
-0.6, 0.65, 0.66, 0.8 or
-0.6, 0.65, 2/3, 4/5
if conver to fractions then
since -0.6 is negative, it is smallest, no need to convert
0.65=65 hundreths=65/100
2/3=66/99=prety close
4/5=8/10=80/100
order is
-0.6, 65/100, 66/99, 80/100 or
-0.6, 0.65, 2/3, 0.8
Answer:
So the reciprocal of 6 is 1/6 because 6 = 6/1 and 1/6 is the inverse of 6/1.
