On a coordinate plane, 2 lines are shown. Line H J has points (negative 4, negative 2) and (0, 4). Line F G has points (negative
4, 1) and (0, negative 2). Which statement best explains the relationship between lines FG and HJ? They are perpendicular because their slopes are equal. They are perpendicular because their slopes are negative reciprocals. They are not perpendicular because their slopes are equal. They are not perpendicular because their slopes are not negative reciprocals.

Answer:
They are not perpendicular because their slopes are not negative reciprocals.
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first we need to find slope.
Line HJ)
(-4,-2) , (0,4)
y2 is 4 y1 is -2, so 4 - -2 = 6
0 - -4 = 4
6/4 -> 3/2
Due to the point (0,4) having no x value 4 is the y intercept.
Hence, y = 3/2x + 4 is the slope of line HJ
Line FG)
(-4,1) , (0,-2)
y2 is -2 y1 is 1, so -2 - 1 = -3
0- -4 = 4
Because (0,-2) is missing an x value -2 is the y intercept,
Equation: y = -3/4x - 2
They are not perpendicular because their slopes are not negative reciprocals.

The equation of the hyperbola is :
The center of a hyperbola is located at the origin that means at (0, 0) and one of the focus is at (-50, 0)
As both center and the focus are lying on the x-axis, so the hyperbola is a horizontal hyperbola and the standard equation of horizontal hyperbola when center is at origin:
The distance from center to focus is 'c' and here focus is at (-50,0)
So, c= 50
Now if the distance from center to the directrix line is 'd', then
Here the directrix line is given as : x= 2304/50
Thus,
⇒
⇒ a² = 2304
⇒ a = √2304 = 48
For hyperbola, b² = c² - a²
⇒ b² = 50² - 48² (By plugging c=50 and a = 48)
⇒ b² = 2500 - 2304
⇒ b² = 196
⇒ b = √196 = 14
So, the equation of the hyperbola is :
