Answer:

none of them

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is, written in a more convenient way:

y = x + 3

I moved the (-1) to the right hand side, it became (+1) and summed with (+2) gave the (+3).

As you can see, the slope of your line is +1.

Now what do we know from the theory? We know that two lines are perpendicular if one's slope is the negative periodical of the other's.

In your case this is very easy to calculate. The negative reciprocal of +1 is -1.

The slopes of the five cases given as options are as follows:

1) -3

2) +3

3) -3

4) +1

5) -3

None of those lines is perpendicular to the original given line.

Answer:

none of them

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are perpendicular when satisfy the next equation: m1*m2 = -1, where m1 and m2 are the slopes o the lines.

line 1:  

y – 1 = (x+2)

y = x + 3

slope of line 1 = 1

line 2:  

y + 2 = –3(x – 4)

y + 2 = -3*x + 12

y =  -3*x + 10

slope of line 2 = -3

m1*m2 = 1*(-3 ) = -3

They are not perpendicular

line 3:  

y − 5 = 3(x + 11)

y − 5 = 3*x + 33

y = 3*x + 38

slope of line 3 = 3

m1*m3 = 1*3 = 3

They are not perpendicular

line 4:  

y = -3x –  

slope of line 4 = -3

m1*m4 = 1*(-3 ) = -3

They are not perpendicular

line 5:  

y = x – 2

slope of line 5 = 1

m1*m5 = 1*1 = 1

They are not perpendicular

line 6:  

3x + y = 7

y = -3x + 7

slope of line 6 = -3

m1*m6 = 1*(-3 ) = -3

They are not perpendicular

What is the area of this trapezoid? Enter your answer in the box.
olga2289 [7]
The formula for area of a trapezoid is
\frac{(b1 + b2) \times h}{2}
so you add up the bottom base (17) and the top base (3) to get 20.
you then take the sum of the bases (20) times the height (8) to get 160.
lastly, you take 160 ÷ 2 to get your final answer, which is 80 (:

Triangles Unit Test part 1 A length of rope is stretched between the top edge of a building and a stake in the ground. The head
musickatia [10]

Answer:

The building is 32 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the figure drawn below representing the given scenario.

AB represents the height of building, BC is the distance between the stake and building, C represents the stake at ground level, and DE represents the height of the tree growing halfway between building and stake.

Since the tree is growing halfway between B and C, therefore, the point E divides the line segment BC into 2 equal parts.

Therefore, BE = EC or E is the midpoint of BC.

Also, from the figure, it is clear that both tree and building are vertical to the ground. So, DE || AB.

Now, from converse of mid-segment theorem, if a line passes through the midpoint of one side of a triangle and also parallel to the third side, then the line also passes through the midpoint of the second side and half the length of the third side (parallel side)

So,

DE=\frac{1}{2}\times AB\\\\16=\frac{AB}{2}\\\\AB=16\times 2=32\ ft

Therefore, the building is 32 feet tall.
