What is the slope of a line perpendicular to 24x-9y=63

In order to find the slop it is probably best to put the equation in y=mx+b form. This means to get y by itself on one side. 
24x-9y=63 will then become -9y=63-24x in which y has been isolated.
Then you should divided by -9 to get the final form: y=24x/9 -63/9.
 Now you can get the slope of the perpendicular line by taking the slope of the original equation and finding its reciprocal which is -9/24x. This is your answer.

Use triangle ABC drawn below & only the sides labeled. Find the side of length AB in terms of side a, side b & angle C o
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

AB = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2-2abCos\ C}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The above triangle

Required

Solve for AB in terms of a, b and angle C

Considering right angled triangle BOC where O is the point between b-x and x

From BOC, we have that:

Sin\ C = \frac{h}{a}

Make h the subject:

h = aSin\ C

Also, in BOC (Using Pythagoras)

a^2 = h^2 + x^2

Make x^2 the subject

x^2 = a^2 - h^2

Substitute aSin\ C for h

x^2 = a^2 - h^2 becomes

x^2 = a^2 - (aSin\ C)^2

x^2 = a^2 - a^2Sin^2\ C

Factorize

x^2 = a^2 (1 - Sin^2\ C)

In trigonometry:

Cos^2C = 1-Sin^2C

So, we have that:

x^2 = a^2 Cos^2\ C

Take square roots of both sides

x= aCos\ C

In triangle BOA, applying Pythagoras theorem, we have that:

AB^2 = h^2 + (b-x)^2

Open bracket

AB^2 = h^2 + b^2-2bx+x^2

Substitute x= aCos\ C and h = aSin\ C in AB^2 = h^2 + b^2-2bx+x^2

AB^2 = h^2 + b^2-2bx+x^2

AB^2 = (aSin\ C)^2 + b^2-2b(aCos\ C)+(aCos\ C)^2

Open Bracket

AB^2 = a^2Sin^2\ C + b^2-2abCos\ C+a^2Cos^2\ C

Reorder

AB^2 = a^2Sin^2\ C +a^2Cos^2\ C + b^2-2abCos\ C

Factorize:

AB^2 = a^2(Sin^2\ C +Cos^2\ C) + b^2-2abCos\ C

In trigonometry:

Sin^2C + Cos^2 = 1

So, we have that:

AB^2 = a^2 * 1 + b^2-2abCos\ C

AB^2 = a^2 + b^2-2abCos\ C

Take square roots of both sides

AB = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2-2abCos\ C}
