You are asking for the condition needed for the
<span>two segments to be perpendicular to each other. </span>
<span>If the slope of one segment is m, then the slope of a perpendicular segment would be -1/m </span>
<span>this means that m2 = -1/m and so m2 x m = -1 </span>
<span>If you look carefully at your choices, the 3rd answer involves the two slope and has the -1. It's </span>
<span>the correct answer.</span>
YZ since they are in the same spot in the cong statement
Answer: The solution is the ordered pair (1/2, -3/4) so x = 1/2 and y = -3/4 pair up together. The two lines, when graphed, cross at this location.
note: 1/2 = 0.5 and -3/4 = -0.75; so the intersection point can be written as (0.5, -0.75)
===================================================
Explanation:
The second equation has y isolated. We can replace the y in the first equation with the expression 1/2x - 1
3x + 2y = 0
3x + 2( y ) = 0
3x + 2( 1/2x - 1) = 0 ... y is replaced with 1/2x-1
3x + 2(1/2x) + 2(-1) = 0 .... distribute
3x + x - 2 = 0 .... note how 2 times 1/2 is 1
4x - 2 = 0
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 1/2
Use this x value to find the y value it pairs with
y = (1/2)*x - 1
y = (1/2)*(1/2) - 1 ... replace x with 1/2
y = 1/4 - 1
y = 1/4 - 4/4
y = (1-4)/4
y = -3/4
Answer:
a² + b² = c²
13² + 13² = c²
169 + 169 = c²
338 = c²
c = √338 or 18.385 or 13√2
(x+2y+z) (x-2y-z)
= x^2 - 2xy - xz + 2xy - 4y^2 - 2yz + xz - 2yz - z^2 = x^2 - 4y^2 - 4yz -z^2
Hope it helped!
