The area of a triangle as stated above is calculated through the equation, A = ab/2 where a and b are altitude and base, respectively. From the condition given above, a = 3b. The area is therefore,
                              A = 24 m² = (3b)(b) / 2
The value of b is equal to 4 which gives height equal to 12 m.

2/3x-10=12

Step 1: Add 10 to both sides.

2/3x=-2

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 3/2.

Calculate the length of a triangle if another length is 15 feet and the hypotenuse is 39 feet.
Y_Kistochka [10]
We have to use Pythagorean theorem that says : 

a^2+b^2=c^2\\\Rightarrow a^2+15^2=39^2\\a^2=39^2-15^2\\a=\sqrt{1296}\\a=36

The missing length of the triangle is : 36 feet

what is the equation of a line in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to y=2x+2 and passes through the point (8,-4)
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The equation of the line that is <em>perpendicular</em> to <em>y = 2x + 2</em> is

<em>y = -1/2x</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The original equation is y = 2x + 2; it's slope is <em>2</em>

Any line perpendicular to this equation would have to have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

Example:

y = 2x + 2 so,

the perpendicular line's slope must be -1/2

Write a new equation with the new slope:

y = -1/2x + b

We know that this line passes through (8, -4)

Plug these coordinates in the equation to find b, the y-intercept

-4 = -1/2 (8) + b

-4 = -4 + b

0 = b

b = 0

We do not have to write y = -1/2x + 0

So, our final answer is "y = -1/2x  is perpendicular to y = 2x+2"
