How can you factor out the coefficient of a variable? Please help , Thank you

The coefficient of b (that is, 2) divides into 2b and also into 8, so it is a factor (a value that is multiplied by another value to produce a term in an expression)

Lydia graphed ADEF at the coordinates D (-2,-1), E (-2, 2), and F (0,0). She thinks ADEF is a right triangle. Is Lydia's asserti

Setler79 [48]

The true statement is (c) No; the slopes of segment EF and segment DF are not opposite reciprocals.

<h3>Right triangles </h3>

Right triangles have a pair of perpendicular lines

Coordinates

The coordinates are given as:

D = (-2,-1)
E = (-2,2)
F = (0,0)

<h3>Slopes</h3>

Start by calculating the slopes of lines DF and EF using:

$m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}$

So, we have:

$m_{DF} = \frac{0 + 1}{0 +2}$

$m_{DF} = \frac{1}{2}$

Also, we have:

$m_{EF} = \frac{0 -2 }{0+2}$

$m_{EF} = \frac{-2 }{2}$

$m_{EF} = -1$

For the triangle to be a right triangle, then the calculated slopes must be opposite reciprocals.

i.e.

$m_1 = -\frac{1}{m_2}$

By comparison, the slopes of both lines are not opposite reciprocals.

Hence, the true statement is (c)
