How do you know if two lines are parallel given coordinates only? How do you know if two lines are perpendicular given coordinat

es only? Give a real world example of parallel and perpendicular lines and explain why it is so important for them to be parallel or perpendicular.

Parallel lines have the same gradient, so use the given coordinates to find the gradients of the lines.

Perpendicular lines have gradients that multiply to give -1. So use the given coordinates to find the gradient, and multiply them.

Perpendicular lines can be found on the globe, where longitudinal and latitude lines intersect. It's important for them to be perpendicular as they are used to measure time and location through geographical coordinates, and since Earth is essentially a sphere with 360 degrees, the lines have to be perpendicular for measurement.

(I could be wrong!!! I found some answers online and implemented them here.)

Find the exact value of csc(-1860).
Alex787 [66]
Now, there are 360° in a circle, how many times does 360° go into 1860°?

well, let's check that,   \bf \cfrac{1860}{360}\implies \cfrac{31}{6}\implies 5\frac{1}{6}\implies 5+\frac{1}{6}

now, this is a negative angle, so it's going clockwise, like a clock moves, so it goes around the circle clockwise 5 times fully, and then it goes 1/6 extra.

well, we know 360° is in a circle, how many degrees in 1/6 of 360°?  well, is just 360/6 or their product, and that's just 60°.

so -1860, is an angle that goes clockwise, negative, 5 times fully, then goes an extra 60° passed.

5 times fully will land you back at the 0 location, if you move further down 60° clockwise, that'll land you on the IV quadrant, with an angle of -60°.

therefore, the csc(-1860°) is the same as the angle of csc(-60°), which is the same as the csc(360° - 60°) or csc(300°).

\bf csc(300^o)\implies \cfrac{1}{sin(300^o)}\implies \cfrac{1}{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\implies -\cfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{and if we rationalize the denominator}\qquad -\cfrac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}

Let g(x)=2x and h(x)=x^2+4 find the value. (hog)(a)
lisov135 [29]
In short, (h o g)(a) is just h(    g(a)    ).

so what we can do is simply get g(a) first and then plug that in h(x).

\bf \begin{cases}&#10;g(x)&=2x\\&#10;h(x)&=x^2+4\\&#10;(h\circ g)(a)&=h(~~g(a)~~)&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;g(a)=2(a)\implies g(a)=2a&#10;\\\\\\&#10;h(~~g(a)~~)\implies h(~~2a~~)=(2a)^2+4&#10;\\\\\\&#10;h(~~2a~~)=(2^2a^2)+4\implies  h(~~2a~~)=4a^2+4
