We are given to lines XY and VW. Now we need to determine the expression that correctly states that these lines are congruent. One possibility to prove that they're congruent is if they are two separate lines and:
XA is congruent to VB,
AY is congruent to BW
XA + AY = XY
VB + BW = VW
Then we can conclude that if the statements above are true, XY and VW must be congruent to each other.
Another possibility is that they are two sides of an isosceles rectangle XYVW and are opposite sides of the rectangle. <span />
Answer:
We can use slope intercept form to get the points needed. Y= -7+1/3x The points are (0,-7) and (3,-6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 2x from the left side and place it over to the right side with the 42. Now we have -6y= 42-2x. From here we divide by -6 and we get y= -7+1/3x. We know that are slope is 1/3 which the one is the rise and the 3 is the run. We also know that our y intercept is -7. We plot the points at (0,-7) and (3,-6)
Y is a vertical axis
x is a horizontal axis
when drawing a line, the line drawn to them is perpendicular so lines only touching the x axis are vertical and lines touching only the y axis are horizontal
the
a vertical line is x=value
the only thing that works is x=12
