5x + 3y = - 53
the equation of a line in ' slope- intercept form ' is y = mx + c
where m is the slope and c the y-intercept
rearrange 3x - 5y = - 15 into this form to obtain m → (subtract 3x from both sides)
- 5y = - 3x - 15 → divide all terms by - 5 )
y =
x + 3 → in slope-intercept form with m = 
given a line with slope m then the slope m₁ of a line perpendicular to it is
m₁ = -
= - 1 ÷
= - 
partial equation is y = -
x + c
to find c substitute ( - 7, - 6) into the partial equation
- 6 =
+ c ⇒ c = - 6 -
= - 
y = -
x -
→ in slope intercept form
multiply all terms by 3
3y = - 5x - 53 → ( add 5x to both sides )
5x + 3y = - 53 → in standard form
Answer:
16. Angle C is approximately 13.0 degrees.
17. The length of segment BC is approximately 45.0.
18. Angle B is approximately 26.0 degrees.
15. The length of segment DF "e" is approximately 12.9.
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>16</h3>
By the law of sine, the sine of interior angles of a triangle are proportional to the length of the side opposite to that angle.
For triangle ABC:
,- The opposite side of angle A
, - The angle C is to be found, and
- The length of the side opposite to angle C
.
.

.
Note that the inverse sine function here
is also known as arcsin.

By the law of cosine,
,
where
,
, and
are the lengths of sides of triangle ABC, and
is the cosine of angle C.
For triangle ABC:
,
, - The length of
(segment BC) is to be found, and - The cosine of angle A is
.
Therefore, replace C in the equation with A, and the law of cosine will become:
.

For triangle ABC:
,
,
, and- Angle B is to be found.
Start by finding the cosine of angle B. Apply the law of cosine.

For triangle DEF:
- The length of segment DF is to be found,
- The length of segment EF is 9,
- The sine of angle E is
, and - The sine of angle D is
.
Apply the law of sine:
