First you have to find the slope with the equation y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 , then once you have found the slope (slope = -2) you simply plug it into the point slope formula. y-0 = -2(x-5) solving it algebraically you should arrive at Y=-2x+10. (the 5 and 0 were plugged in are two of the X and Y points of the line which is why we plugged them into the X and Y values of the equation)
Both numbers have the variable x so you add 5 and 12 which gives you 17 and you need to write the variable. The answer is 17x
A triangle can only have at most one right angle.
Here's a proof that shows why this is so:
We know that the sum of all interior angles of a triangle must add up to 180.
Let's say the interior angles are A, B, and C
A + B + C = 180
Let's show that having two right angles is impossible
Let A = B = 90
90 + 90 + C = 180
180 + C = 180
Subtract 180 from both sides
C = 0
We cannot have an angle with 0 degrees in a triangle. Thus, it is impossible to have 2 right angles in a triangle.
Let's try to show that it's impossible to have 3 right angles
Let A = B = C = 90
90 + 90 + 90 = 180 ?
270 ≠ 180
Thus it's impossible to have 3 right angles as well.
Let's show that is possible to have 1 right angle
Let A = 90
90 + B + C = 180
Subtract both sides by 90
B + C = 90
There are values of B and C that will make this true. Thus, a triangle can have at most one right angle.
Have an awesome day! :)
