2 answers:
Answer:
D E + E F greater-than D F
5 less-than D F less-than 13
Triangle D E F is a scalene triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side
we have the triangle EDF
where
<u><em>Applying the triangle inequality theorem</em></u>
1)
2)
so
The length of DF is the interval -----> (5,13)
The triangle DEF is a scalene triangle (the three length sides are different)
therefore
<em>The statements that are true are</em>
D E + E F greater-than D F
5 less-than D F less-than 13
Triangle D E F is a scalene triangle

Answer:
- y = 1/2x +2
- y = -2x +7
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line is the tangent of the angle it makes with the x-axis. The given line has a slope of -1/3, so the lines we want will have slopes of ...
m1 = tan(arctan(-1/3) +45°) = 0.5 . . . . . using a calculator
m2 = tan(arctan(-1/3) -45°) = -2
Of course, these two lines are perpendicular to each other, so their slopes will have a product of -1: (0.5)(-2) = -1.

We can use the point-slope form of the equation for a line to write the desired equations:
y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
<u>Line 1</u>:
y = 1/2(x -2) +3
y = 1/2x +2
<u>Line 2</u>:
y = -2(x -2) +3
y = -2x +7
