Given:
Line a is perpendicular to line b
.
Line a passes through the points (1,-8) and (9,-12)
.
Line b passes through the point (-8, -16).
To find:
The equation of b.
Solution:
Line a passes through the points (1,-8) and (9,-12)
. So, slope of line a is
Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1.



Slope of line b is 2.
If a line passing through a point
with slope m, then equation of line is

Line b passing through (-8,-16) with slope 2. So, equation of line b is



Subtract 16 from both sides.

Therefore, the equation of line b is
.
Answer:
84,375 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the surface area of the pyramid. The pyramid can be divided into 4 triangles and one square (the bottom).
Area of a triangle is 1/2*b*h where b is the base of the triangle and h is the height.
Area of a square is length times width.
Total area = 
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid if found using the formula
A = (base1 + base2)/2 x height
Area = (3+5)/2 x 1.5
Area = 8/2 x 1.5
Area = 4 x 1.5
Area = 6 square feet.
