Answer:
Corresponding angles
Step-by-step explanation:
In elementary geometry the word congruent is often used as follows.
Two line segments are congruent if they have the same length.
Two angles are congruent if they have the same measure.
Two circles are congruent if they have the same diameter.
The eight angles that are produced as a result of two parallel lines are cut by a transversal will together form four pairs of corresponding angles. Corresponding angles are congruent. All angles that have the same position with regards to the parallel lines and the transversal are corresponding pairs.
Answer:
dy/dx = -b/a cot α
Step-by-step explanation:
x² / a² + y² / b² = 1
Take derivative with respect to x.
2x / a² + 2y / b² dy/dx = 0
2y / b² dy/dx = -2x / a²
dy/dx = -b²x / (a²y)
Substitute:
dy/dx = -b²a cos α / (a²b sin α)
dy/dx = -b cos α / (a sin α)
dy/dx = -b/a cot α
