a. Does her equation make sense? If so, explain why her equation must be true. If it is not correct, determine what is incorrect and rewrite the equation.

b. If you have not already done so, solve her equation, clearly showing all your steps. What are the measures of the two angles?

c. Verify that your answer is correct.

The figure is attached below

Given : (2x+1) + (x-10) = 90

(a) Yes , the equation make sense because right angle is 90 degree. Also two angles make up 90 degree.

(b) solve for x, (2x+1) + (x-10) = 90

2x+1 + x-10 = 90 ( combine like terms)

3x -9 = 90 (add 9 on both sides)

3x = 99

x = 33

One angle is 2x+1 = 2(33) +1 = 67 degrees

Another angle = x-10 = 33-10 = 23 degrees

67 + 23 = 90

So verified

What is an equation of the line perpendicular to y=-x-2 and through (-2, 4)?

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: y = x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

$\mathrm{Find\:the\:line\:}\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:perpendicular\:to\:}y=-x-2\mathrm{\:that\:passes\:through\:}\left(-2,\:4\right)$

$\mathrm{For\:a\:line\:equation\:for\:the\:form\:of\:}\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{,\:the\:slope\:is\:}\mathbf{m}$

$m=-1$

$\mathrm{The\:perpendicular\:slope\:is\:the\:negative\:reciprocal\:of\:the\:given\:slope}$

$\left(-1\right)m_p=-1$

$\frac{\left(-1\right)m_p}{-1}=\frac{-1}{-1}$

$m_p=1$

$\mathrm{Compute\:the\:line\:equation\:}\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:for\:slope\:m=}1\mathrm{\:and\:passing\:through\:}\left(-2,\:4\right)$ $\mathrm{Plug\:the\:slope\:}1\mathrm{\:into\:}y=mx+b$

$y=x+b$

$\mathrm{Plug\:in\:}\left(-2,\:4\right)\mathrm{:\:}\quad \:x=-2,\:y=4$

$4=\left(-2\right)+b$

$-2+b=4$

$\mathrm{Add\:}2\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}$

$-2+b+2=4+2$

$\text{Simplify}$

$b=6$

$\mathrm{Construct\:the\:line\:equation\:}\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:where\:}\mathbf{m}=1\mathrm{\:and\:}\mathbf{b}=6$

$y=x+6$

Express the complex number in trigonometric form. -4

salantis [7]

Ok this is a negative number.
All negative numbers have argument $\pi$
Obviously, the module of this number is $\vert-4\vert=4$
The general trigonometric form of a complex number is:
$z=\vert z\vert(cos\theta+i\sin\theta)$
We deduce the trigonometric for of -4:
$-4=4(cos\pi+i\sin\pi)$

What expression factors to 8(x+2)

liq [111]

If you would like to solve 8 * (x + 2), you can do this using the following steps:

8 * (x + 2) = 8 * x + 8 * 2 = 8 * x + 16

The correct result would be 8 * x + 16.
