The slope of BC is \frac{-4}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some notes about slopes of lines

  • If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equal
  • If to lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1, that means if the slope of one is m, then the slope of the other is \frac{-1}{m}

∵ ABCD is a rectangle

∵ AB // CD

∴ The slope of AB = the slope of CD

∵ BC ⊥ AB

∴ The slope of BC × the slope of AB = -1

∵ The slope of AB = \frac{3}{4}

- To find the slope of BC reciprocal the slope of AB and reverse its sign

∴ The slope of BC = \frac{-4}{3}

The slope of BC is \frac{-4}{3}

If x= 35. what is the value of Y?<br> 0 35
Grace [21]

Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle all the angles = 180 degrees

That means: x + y + 90 = 180

x + y = 180 - 90 = 90

35 + y = 90

y = 90 - 35

y = 55 degrees
