My answer is 22 and 23 and their both integers
So it's 4/7 divided by 2.5 right?
Slope: -2
NOTE: The line perpendicular to line
has a slope
.
So your slope is
- 1 over 2 (Answer a)
Answer:
Draw a perpendicular line from point A to line segment BC. Name the intersection of said line at BC “E.” You now have a right angled triangle AED.
Now, you know AD = 6 m. Next, given that the trapezoid is a normal one, you know that the midpoints of AB and DC coincide. Therefore, you can find the length of DE like so, DE = (20–14)/2 = 3 m.
Next, we will use the cosign trigonometric function. We know, cos() = adjacent / hypotenuse. Hence, cosx = 3/6 = 1/2. Looking it up on a trigonometric table we know, cos(60 degrees) = 1/2. Therefore, x = 60 degrees.
Alternatively, you could simply use the Theorem for normal trapezoids that states that the base angles will be 60 degrees. Hope this helps!
