Hey there!!

Steps to get into equation which is perpendicular:

  • Change the slope
  1. The slope of a perpendicular line is always negative reciprocal.
  • Take the point and get that into point-slope form.
  1. y - y = m ( x - x )
  • Convert this equation into slope-intercept form.

'm' is the slope.

We have the slope as 1/3

The perpendicular slope would be -3.

Point slope:

The point = (-2,2)

y - 2 = -3( x - (-2) )

y - 2 = -3(x+2)

y - 2 = -3x -6

Adding 2 on both sides:

y = -3x - 4

<em>Hence, the equation would be : </em>

<u><em>y = -3x - 4 </em></u>

Hope it helps!

likoan [24]
A = 1/2 (l × w)
A = 1/2 (8 1/2 × 6)
A = 1/2 (17/2 ×12/2)
A = 1/2 (204/4)
A = 1/2 (51)
A = 25 1/2  OR  25.5 in

Points J and K are midpoints of the sides of triangle FGH. What is the value of y?

The answer 

the complement of the question is 

What is the value of y?

According to the image, HKJ and FGH are similar, we can apply the theorem of thales
since GK and GF are parallels, so 

HK / HF = HJ / HG = KJ / GF and as we see on the figure, HK = HF /2, this implies  2HK =HF

HK / 2HK =  KJ / GF  it is equivalent to   1/2 = 2y+5 / 5y +3 

likewise, equivalent to  5y +3  = 4y +10, 5y-4y = 10-3, and y = 7


so the answer is 7
