Answer:

\text{The equation of line with slope 2 and passing through the point (5, 6) is }y=2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of line QR is

y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1

we have to find the equation of a line perpendicular to line QR in slope-intercept form that contains point (5, 6).

The slope-intercept form is

y=mx+c

Compare general equation with given equation.

m=-\frac{1}{2}

As we know the slope of perpendicular line of negative reciprocal of given line therefore, the slope of perpendicular to line QR is

m=2

The equation of line with slope m and passing through the point (x',y') is

y-y'=m(x-x')

Therefore, the equation of line with slope 2 and passing through the point (5, 6) is

y-6=2(x-5)

y-6=2x-10

y=2x-10+6

y=2x-4

which is required slope-intercept form of line perpendicular to line QR.

Any perpendicular line has a negative reciprocal slope. So your slope would be 2. The. You would have the equation : y=2x+b. You would then replace the coordinate (5,6) with x and y on your line to solve for b. Your equation would be : y=2x-4

What is m∠D? Enter your answer in the box.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

D = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

A+ B + E = 180 since they form a triangle

14+ 45 + E = 180

E = 180 -14-45

E =121

E on either triangle is the same since they are vertical angles

C+D+E = 180 since they form a triangle

27+ D + 121 = 180

D = 180-121-27

D =32
