The perpendicular line would have a slope of 1/3.
Perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. So first we have to find the slope of the original line. We can do this by solving the equation for y.
5x - 9y = 1
-9y = -5x + 1
y = 5/9x - 1/9
To do the opposite, take the original slope (5/9) and change the sign (-5/9).
To do the reciprocal, take the slope we changed (-5/9) and flip it as a fraction (-9/5).
This gives us a new slope of
To solve the question we shall use the formula for the range given by:
Horizontal range, R=[v²sin 2θ]/g
plugging in our values we get:
500=[160²×sin 2θ]/10
5000=160²×sin 2θ
0.1953=sin 2θ
thus:
arcsin 0.1953=2θ
11.263=2θ
hence:
θ=5.6315°~5.63
Answer:
140°
Step-by-step explanation:
<3 = 40 because they are vertical angles
<3 +<4 = 180 because they are same side interior angles
40 + <4 = 180
Subtract 40 from each side
40-40 + <4 = 180-40
<4 = 140
