Original line equation: y=-4x+4
Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocals, so the slope of the perpendicular line would be 1/4x.
Perpendicular line equation: y=1/4x+b
Plug in the coordinates that the line passes through to solve for b. Plug -8 in for x and 2 in for y.
2=1/4(-8)+b
Multiply.
2=-2+b
Add 2 to both sides.
4=b
Equation of the perpendicular line: y=1/4x+4
Hope this helps! :)
Step-by-step explanation:
m=-2
m^2+9m+3
substitute-2 in m
-2^2+9(-2)+3
= -19

Answer:
we need to see a picture of something to answer your question.
Length (2, 6) to (-4, 6) is sqrt((x2 - x1))^2 + (y2 - y1)^2) = sqrt((-4 -2)^2 + (6 - 6)^2) = sqrt((-6)^2 + 0) = 6
Length (2, 6) to (-4, 4) is sqrt((-4 - 2)^2 + (4 - 6)^2) = sqrt((-6)^2 + (-2)^2) = sqrt(36 + 4) = sqrt(40) = 2sqrt(10) units
Length (-4, 6) to (-4, 4) is sqrt((-4 - (-4))^2 + (4 - 6)^2) = sqrt(0^2 + (-2)^2) = 2
So the length of the longest side is 2sqrt(10) units
