Answer:

The equation that represents the new path is y=(1/2)x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the give line

we have

y=-2x-7

so

the slope m is equal to

m=-2

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal of each other

so

we have

m=-2 -----> slope of the given line

therefore

The slope of the perpendicular line is equal to

m=1/2

step 3

With m=1/2 and the point (-2,-3) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y+3=(1/2)(x+2)

y=(1/2)x+1-3

y=(1/2)x-2 -----> equation that represent the new path

Prove that 1/sec0-tan0= sec0+tan0
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{LHS}=\frac{1}{\sec \theta-\tan \theta}\\=\frac{\sec \theta+\tan \theta}{(\sec \theta-\tan \theta)(\sec \theta+\tan \theta)}\\=\frac{\sec \theta+\tan \theta}{\sec^{2} \theta-\tan^{2} \theta}\\=\frac{\sec \theta+\tan \theta}{1}\\=\sec \theta+\tan \theta\\=\text{RHS}
