The image of the question is attached below.

Given:

m∠DAC = 20° and m∠BCA = 30°

m∠ABC = 90° and m∠CDA = 90°

To find:

The value of x and y.

Solution:

In right triangle ABC,

m∠BAC = x° + 20°

Sum of the interior angles of a triangle = 180°

m∠BAC +m∠ABC + m∠BCA = 180°

x° + 20° + 90° + 30° = 180°

x° + 140° = 180°

Subtract 140° from both sides.

x° + 140° - 140° = 180° - 140°

x° = 40°

In right triangle ADC,

m∠ACD = y° + 30°

Sum of the interior angles of a triangle = 180°

m∠ACD +m∠CDA + m∠DAC = 180°

y° + 30° + 90° + 20° = 180°

y° + 140° = 180°

Subtract 140° from both sides.

y° + 140° - 140° = 180° - 140°

y° = 40°

The value of x is 40 and y is 40.

Write an equation parallel to 5x-4y=4 that passes through the point (-8,2)
ehidna [41]

Since the line is parallel, the same coefficients can be used for x and y. The constant on the right needs to change so that the given point will satisfy the equation.

... 5x - 4y = 5(-8) -4(2) = -40 -8 = -48

Your equation is

... 5x -4y = -48

Through point (0, 10) and PERPENDICULAR to the line through (-2, -9) and (-4, -17)?
inn [45]

Compute the slope of the line through (-2, -9) and (-4, -17):

\dfrac{-9-(-17)}{-2-(-4)}=\dfrac82=4

Any line perpendicular to this line will have slope -1/4. The one that passes through (0, 10) satisifes

y-10=-\dfrac14(x-0)\implies\boxed{y=10-\dfrac x4}
