Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular means that the slopes of the "old" line and the "new" line are opposite reciprocals; bisector means that the "new" line goes directly through the center of the "old" line. This perpendicular bisector, then, will go directly through the center of the "old" line, cutting it directly in half and leaving in its wake a 90 degree angle. To write this equation, then, of the perpendicular bisector, we need the slope of the old line and the midpoint of the old line. Let's work on the midpoint first:
So the "new" line will go through this point.
Onto the slope:
so the slope is
m = -4. That means that the perpendicular slope is
Now we're ready to write the equation:
and
and finally,

Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets revise how to graph the quadratic function
- Find the vertex of it
- Find the y-intercept
- Find the x-intercept
∵ f(x) = (x - 5)² + 1 ⇒ the completing square form
- The completing square form for any quadratic is
( x - h)² + k, where h and k are the coordinate of the vertex point
* Lets compare the two forms
∵ (x - h)² + k = (x - 5)² + 1
∴ h = 5 and k = 1
∴ The vertex of the parabola is (5 , 1)
- To find the x-intercept put f(x) = 0
∵ (x - 5)² + 1 = 0 ⇒ subtract 1 from both sides
∴ (x - 5)² = -1 ⇒ the square can not give -ve number
∴ The parabola does not intersect the x-axis
- To find the y-intercept put x = 0
∵ f(0) = (0 - 5)² + 1 = 25 + 1 = 26
∴ The parabola intersects the y-axis at point (0 , 26)
- The parabola is opened upward because the coefficient of x² is +ve
* Now lets graph it
- Look to the attached graph
