Find the slope m.
Use the point-slope formula.
Solve for y.
i. Let t be the line tangent at point J. We know that a tangent line at a point on a circle, is perpendicular to the diameter comprising that certain point. So t is perpendicular to JL
let l be the tangent line through L. Then l is perpendicular to JL ii. So t and l are 2 different lines, both perpendicular to line JL.
2 lines perpendicular to a third line, are parallel to each other, so the tangents t and l are parallel to each other.
Remark. Draw a picture to check the
Answer: x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Simplify:
-(x-1)=5 => -x+1=5
Isolate x:
-x=5-1 => -x=4 => x=-4
2/7 because both 8 and 28 are divisible by 4
