Answer:

slope = - \frac{3}{2}

The type of triangle represented in the image attached to the task content is; Isosceles.

<h3>What type of triangle is triangle ABC?</h3>

By observation; since line AB and DE are parallel lines; it follows from the alternate Angie theorem that; <ABC = <BCE = 80°.

On this note, since angle ACD is 50°, the measure on <ACB is;

180 - 80 - 50 = 50°.

Therefore, since the sum of interior angle measures in a triangle is; 180°.

It follows that; <BAC is; 180 - 80 - 50 = 50°.

Hence, since the base angles; BAC and ACB are equal; it follows that the triangle in discuss is an isosceles triangle.
