Answer:  The lines L1 and L2 are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to determine whether the following lines L1 and L2 passing through the pair of points are parallel, perpendicular or neither :

L1 : (–5, –5), (4, 6),

L2 : (–9, 8), (–18, –3).

We know that a pair of lines are

(i) PARALLEL if the slopes of both the lines are equal.

(II) PERPENDICULAR if the product of the slopes of the lines is -1.

The SLOPE of a straight line passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}.

So, the slope of line L1 is

m_1=\dfrac{6-(-5)}{4-(-5)}=\dfrac{6+5}{4+5}=\dfrac{11}{9}

and

the slope of line L2 is

m_2=\dfrac{-3-8}{-18-(-9)}=\dfrac{-11}{-9}=\dfrac{11}{9}.

Therefore, we get

m_1=m_2\\\\\Rightarrow \textup{Slope of line L1}=\textup{Slope of line L2}.

Hence, the lines L1 and L2 are parallel.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

x = 95°

y = 147°

z = 128°

Step-by-step explanation:

∡x is the sum of 50 and 45, deducted from 180

∡y = 95 + 52, deducted from 180

∡z = 180 - 52

Solve the equation 6=2d/5 for d.
Yuri [45]

6 =  \frac{2d}{5}  \\ 6 \times 5 = 2d \\ 30 = 2d \\  \frac{30}{2}   = d \\  \boxed{15 = d}
