Slope of (6, 9) & (7, 1)

To find the slope, we use the equation : m = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

**Remember : m = slope**

Let's say that (6, 9) is our first set of points, and (7, 1) is our second.

If those are our first and second points, then we now know this :

x₁ = 6, x₂ = 7, y₁ = 9, y₂ = 1

Now that we know that, we can simply plug those points into our slope equation.

m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

m = (1 - 9) / (7 - 6 )

Simplify.

m = -8 / 1

Simplify.

m = -8

So, our slope is -8.

Calculate the angle of depression from the

Vinil7 [7]

The angle of depression from the top of the flag pole to point A is 36.2 degrees.

<h3>What is the angle of depression?</h3>

From trigonometric ratio: cos(θ) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Given that;

Adjacent = 25ft
Hypotenuse = 31ft
Angle of depression θ = ?

cos(θ) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Cos(θ) = 25ft/31ft

Cos(θ) = 0.80645

θ = cos⁻¹( 0.80645 )

θ = 36.2°

Therefore, the angle of depression from the top of the flag pole to point A is 36.2 degrees.
