The quadrilateral ABCD has area of 58 in2 and diagonal AC = 14.5 in. Find the length of diagonal BD if AC ⊥ BD.

1 answer:

7 0

When the diagonals of a quadrilateral are perpendicular, the area of that quadrilateral is half the product of their lengths.
.. A = (1/2)*d₁*d₂
Substituting the given information, this becomes
.. 58 in² = (1/2)*(14.5 in)*d₂
.. 2*58/14.5 in = d₂ = 8 in

The length of diagonal BD is 8 in.

Write an equation of the line that passes through (-1,7) and is perpendicular to the line y=-1/8x -1

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

y = 8x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find slope of perpendicular line

<em>Take the negative reciprocal of the 1st equation</em>

m = 8

y = 8x + b

Step 2: Find <em>b</em>

7 = 8(-1) + b

7 = -8 + b

b = 15

Step 3: Rewrite perpendicular equation

y = 8x + 15
