Step 1

<u>Find the slope of the given line</u>

Let

A(-3,2)\ B(2,-1)

slope mAB is equal to

mAB=\frac{(y2-y1)}{(x2-x1)} \\ \\ mAB=\frac{(-1-2)}{(2+3)} \\ \\ mAB=-\frac{3}{5}

Step 2

<u>Find the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the given line</u>

Let

CD ------> the line that is perpendicular to the given line

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is equal to -1

so

mAB*mCD=-1\\ mAB=-\frac{3}{5} \\ mCD=-\frac{1}{mAB} \\ mCD=\frac{5}{3}

Step 3

<u>Find the equation of the line with mCD and the point (3,0)</u>

we know that

the equation of the line in the form point-slope is equal to

y-y1=m(x-x1)\\\\ y-0=\frac{5}{3} *(x-3)\\\\ y=\frac{5}{3} x-5

Multiply by 3 both sides

3y=5x-15

5x-3y=15

therefore

the answer is

the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line is the equation 5x-3y=15

Given the graph of a line y=−x. Write an equation of a line (there are many) which intersects the line, but is not perpendicular
BaLLatris [955]
This would be any equation whose slope isn’t -1 or 1.

If the slope was -1, the lines would be parallel because the have the same slope.

If the slope was 1, the lines would be perpendicular because 1 is the negative reciprocal of -1.

Any line with any other slope will intersect with y=-x.

Hope this helps!

A right angle triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to 10 centimeters. An acute angle of the triangle is labeled as x degrees
Nostrana [21]

The Question is incomplete the Complete Question is

Look at the triangle: A right angle triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to 10 centimeters. An acute angle of the triangle is labeled as x degrees. The side adjacent to the acute angle has length 6 centimeters and the side opposite to the acute angle has length 8 centimeters. What is the value of tan x°?

Answer:

Therefore the value of tan x is

\tan x=\dfrac{4}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

hypotenuse = 10 cm'

side adjacent to the acute angle 'x' = 6 cm.

side opposite to the acute angle 'x' = 8 cm.

To Find:

tan x = ?

Solution:

In Right Angle Triangle , Tan Identity we have

\tan x= \dfrac{\textrm{side opposite to angle x}}{\textrm{side adjacent to angle x}}

Substituting the values we get

\tan x= \dfrac{8}{6}=\dfrac{4}{3}

Therefore the value of tan x is

\tan x=\dfrac{4}{3}
