Answer:

Perpendicular (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the gradient of the first line:

Change in y/ Change in x = -7-(-2)/ -9-(-12) = -5/3

Now find the gradient of the second line:

9-6/1-6 = -3/-5 = 3/5

When we multiply the gradient of two perpendicular lines we will get:

m1 x m2 = -1

If we multiply 3/5 and -5/3 we will get -1

Therefore it is perpendicular!

Does the mapping diagram represent a function? Why or why not?

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

In a function every X must have only 1 Y. In this example the x 3 has to y's 10 and 5, therefore making it not a function.

Answer:

52 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

A to B:

sqrt( (3 - (-2))^2 + (-11 - 1)^2 )

sqrt( (5)^2 + (-12)^2 )

sqrt( 25 + 144 )

sqrt( 169 )

B to C:

sqrt( (-2 - 3)^2 + (-23 - (-11))^2 )

sqrt( (-5)^2 + (-12)^2 )

sqrt( 25 + 144 )

sqrt( 169 )

C to D:

sqrt( (-7 - (-2))^2 + (-11 - (-23))^2 )

sqrt( (-5)^2 + (12)^2 )

sqrt( 25 + 144 )

sqrt( 169 )

D to A:

sqrt( (-2 - (-7))^2 + (1 - (-11))^2 )

sqrt( (5)^2 + (12)^2 )

sqrt( 25 + 144 )

sqrt( 169 )

Jake built a skateboard ramp, if the distance of the ramp is 10 ft. The ramp rises a

ikadub [295]

Answer:

Angle made by ramp with ground is ≈ $19.29^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Diagram of given scenario is shown below.

Given that,

Horizontal Distance of Skateboard ramp is $10$ ft.

Height of Skateboard ramp is $3.5$ ft.

From figure,

It is forming a Right angle triangle $\triangle ABC$ .

In $\triangle ABC$ , $AB=3.5$ and $BC=10$ .

Clearly see that we need to find measure of angle $\angle C$ .

Using Trigonometric ratio:

$Tan(\theta)= \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

So, $Tan(\angle C) = \frac{AB}{BC} =\frac{3.5}{10} =0.35$

Then $\angle C=Tan^{-1} (3.5)=19.290046^{\circ}$

Therefore, Angle made by ramp with ground is ≈ $19.29^{\circ}$
