Answer:

Perpendicular lines intersect forming right angles, which are 90 degrees. Slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals, meaning the product of the two slopes is negative 1.

Which did you include in your response?

Perpendicular lines intersect.

They form right angles (90 degrees).

The slopes are opposite reciprocals.

The product of their slopes equals –1.

A 14 14-foot board is cut into two pieces. If one piece is x feet long, express the other length in terms of x.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

x = first piece

14 - x = second piece

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that the board is 14 feet then to find the size of the second piece, we just take the full length of the board and then subtract it to the first piece's length.

Solve sec2theta + tantheta - 3 =0 for 0

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Ф = $\frac{\pi }{4} ,\frac{5\pi}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a bit difficult to input the work here, so I uploaded an image

First we can use the trig identities to change sec²(Ф) to tan²(Ф) + 1
Then we can combine like terms
Then we can factor this as a polynomial function
Then we can set each term equal to zero and solve for Ф
The first term tan(Ф) - 2 = 0 has no solution because tan(Ф) ≠ -2 anywhere
The second term tan(Ф) - 1 = 0 has two solutions of $\frac{\pi}{4}$ and $\frac{5\pi}{4}$ so these are the solutions to the problem
