To solve this, you’ll first need to solve for their slopes.
The slope for line Q is y2-y1/x2-x1 = -8-(-2)/-8-(-10) = -3
We know that the lines are perpendicular so the negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3
The equation you get it y = 1/3x + b.
Now you will need to solve for b by substituting in the first ordered pair of line R.
2 = 1/3(1) + b.
Once you solve for b, you should get 5/3 and y = 1/3x + 5/3
Now, to find a, you will need to substitute in 10 from the second ordered pair into x in your new equation.
y = 1/3(10) + 5/3.
Your solution should be 5.
So your answer is: a = 5
3.625 is the answer. Enjoy!

notice, if the original area was πr², then the new area has a factor in front of it, that much.
Answer:
The measure of the angles in degree is 57.5 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
If two angles are congruent, they are equal in value
Let the number be x
2x + 3 = 3x-54.5
Thus;
3x-2x = 54.5 + 3
x = 57.5
Answer:
option b
Step-by-step explanation:
replace x and y with the x and y of the ordered pair
option a: 2(4)+4(5)=6(4)-5
solve
8+20=24-5
28=19 not true
option b:2(5)+4(4)=6(5)-4
solve
10+16=30-4
26=26 true
