Answer:

slope = - \frac{\sqrt{3} }{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Differentiating implicitly with respect to x

2x + 2y \frac{dy}{dx} = 0

2y \frac{dy}{dx} = - 2x

\frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{2x}{2y} = - \frac{x}{y}

\frac{dy}{dx} is the measure of the slope of the tangent

rearrange equation to find corresponding y-coordinate of x = - 2

y² = 16 - 4 = 12 = 2\sqrt{3} ⇒ y = ± 2\sqrt{3}

using x = - 2, y = - 2\sqrt{3}, then

\frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } = - \frac{\sqrt{3} }{3}

The triangles below are similar because of the:
siniylev [52]

Answer:

AA similarity postulate

Explanation:

For triangle XZY, the angles are 90°, 40°, 50°.

For triangle AXB, the angles are 90°, 40°, 50°.

Which states that all the angles are of equal measure in the triangles.

This is stated by AA similarity theorem meaning when two angles are equal in the triangle. Then the triangles are congruent to each other.
