I would recommend taking a picture of the instructions because I am not sure if you need to find the equation of the line that is parallel or perpendicular, so I will do both.

1. (3 , 2); y = 3x - 2

If the line is parallel to the given equation, the slopes have to be the SAME, so the slope(m) is 3

y = mx + b

y = 3x + b

To find b you plug in the point (3, 2) into the equation

2 = 3(3) + b

2 = 9 + b

-7 = b

The equation of the line that is parallel to the given equation is:

y = 3x - 7


To find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given equation, the slope has to be the exact opposite of the given slope. (you flip the sign and the number of the given slope to get the perpendicular line's slope)

The given slope is 3, the perpendicular slope is -\frac{1}{3}

y = mx + b

y = -\frac{1}{3} x + b

To find b, you plug in the point (3 , 2) into the equation

2 = -\frac{1}{3} (3) + b

2 = -1 + b

3 = b

The equation of the line perpendicular to the given equation is:

y = -\frac{1}{3} x +3

How do you find the volume of a triangular prism with different bases formula
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Triangular prisms

Remember the formula for calculating volume is: Volume = Area by height. V = A X h.

For a triangle the area is calculated using the formula: Area = half of base by altitude. A = 0.5 X b X a.

So to calculate the volume of a triangular prism, the formula is: V = 0.5 X b X a X h.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is a sextant and how is it used?
Elan Coil [88]
A sextant<span> is a </span>doubly reflecting navigation instrument<span> that measures the </span>angular distance<span> between two visible objects. The primary use of a sextant is to measure the angle between an </span>astronomical object<span> and the </span>horizon<span> for the purposes of </span>celestial navigation<span>.

The estimation of this angle, the altitude, is known as </span>sighting<span> or </span>shooting<span> the object, or </span>taking a sight<span>. The angle and the time when it was measured, can be used to calculate a </span>position line<span> on a nautical or aeronautical </span>chart. F<span>or example; sighting the </span>Sun<span> at </span>noon <span>or </span>Polaris<span> at night (in the Northern Hemisphere) to estimate </span>latitude<span>. Sighting the height of a landmark can give a measure of </span>distance off<span> and held horizontally.

A sextant can measure angles between objects for a </span>position on a chart.<span> A sextant can also be used to measure the </span>lunar distance<span> between the moon and another celestial object (such as a star or planet) in order to determine </span>Greenwich Mean Time<span> and hence </span>longitude<span>. 

Hope this helps!
