Answer:

(A)If lines have negative reciprocal slopes, then they are perpendicular.

The given statement is:

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

To get the converse of the conditional statement, interchange the hypothesis and the conclusion.

Then the converse of the above given statement will be given as:

If the lines have negative reciprocal slopes, then they are perpendicular.

Hence, option A is correct.

A circle has a radius of 5 centimeters. What is the area?

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

$25\pi$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a circle is $A=\pi r^{2}$ , r is your radius, A is your area, and π is pi (3.1415...). You plug in your radius, or 5 into r, square it, 25, and multiply it by pi. You may be asked to use a certain number of digits of pi, and in that case you multiply for example 3.14 by 25, however $25\pi$ is the exact answer.
