Use Pythagorean theorem (a squared is equal to c squared minus b squared)

Where a is the unknown leg, c is the hypotenuse and b is the known leg

a^2 = 13^2-5^2 which is 144

Then square root one hundred and fourty four to get rid of the power on a

Square root of one hundred and fourty four is twelve

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=3x-2 that passes trough the point (-9,5)
ElenaW [278]

\huge\boxed{y-5&=-\frac{1}{3}(x+9)}

First, we'll find the slope of the new line. The first line has a slope of 3. Take the negative reciprocal of this (Flip the numerator and denominator, then multiply by -1) to get -\frac{1}{3} for the new slope.

Then, we'll use the point-slope form to make the new equation, where m is the slope and (x_1,y_1) is a point on the line:

\begin{aligned}y-y_1&=m(x-x_1)\\y-5&=-\frac{1}{3}(x-(-9))\\y-5&=-\frac{1}{3}(x+9)\end{aligned}

Komok [63]

Answer:

The mapping can also be represented as the set of ordered pairs: (4, 9) (5, 10) (6, 11) (7, 12). The ordered pair preserves the directional property of the relation. It is consistent with the order of points plotted on a Cartesian Plane represented by (",$). In the Arrow Diagram that follows.
