Given:
(2, 4) and (3, 3) are on the line.
To find:
The equation of line in point slope form.
Solution:
If a line passes through a point with slope m, then the point slope form of the line is
(2, 4) and (3, 3) are on the line. So, slope of the line is
The slope of a line is -1 and it passes through (2,4). So, an equation in point slope form is
Therefore, an equation of the line in point slope form is .
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
The shorter leg is inches
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
The 30°-60°-90° is a special type of right-angled triangles
<u>It has the following special side length:</u>
The length of the side opposite to the 30° is the length of the hypotenuse
The length of the side opposite to the 60° is of the hypotenuse
<u>Now, we know that</u> the lengths of the sides in a triangle are proportional to the angles
<u>This means that</u> the shortest side will be the one opposite to the smallest angles
In our case, the shortest side will be the one opposite to the 30° angle
We are given that the hypotenuse of the triangle is in
<u>From the above:</u>
Shorter leg = leg opposite to 30° = inches
Hope this helps :)
