Hi there!

To find the perpendicular slope you need to flip the fraction and change the sign. So 1/2=2/1 and tge original slope was positive, so the slope is -2. Now you sub in the point (-7,-4) in for x and y in the formula y=mx+b and solve for b (sub in 2 for m as well)
Y=mx+b
-4=-2*-7+b
-4=14+b
-4-14=b
B=-18
The equation is y=-2x-18

Hope this helps!

Answer:

a. Alternate exterior angles.

b. <A and <B are congruent. This diagram involves a line intersecting two parallel lines, forming the congruent angles <A and <B on opposite sides of the transversal.

c. They are alternate exterior angles like <A and <B, but because it is not guaranteed that the transversal is intersecting parallel lines in this case, we cannot prove that <C and <D are congruent alternate exterior angles.

Which graph shape represents the polar curve r = 1 + 4sin(θ)?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

A cardioid

Step-by-step explanation:

A cardioid is a curve in the shape of a heart traced by a point on the circumference of a circle as it rolls around a fixed circle of the same radius.

The equation of vertical cardioid is r=a ± a\sin \theta

Given the polar curve is r= 1+ 4 \sin \theta

This is an equation of vertical cardioid.

So, it represents a cardioid.
