Given parameters:
Coordinates of end points = (2, -3) and (-6,5).
Slope of line =
Unknown:
Equation of the line with the given slope = ?
Solution:
Let us find the coordinates of the mid-point of the line given.
Since the end points are (2, -3) and (-6,5);
Midpoint;
x, y = ,
x, y = ,
= -2 , 1
The coordinate of the mid point = -2,1
Equation of a line is;
y = mx + c
x and y are the coordinates
m is the slope
c is the y intercept
We need to find c in order to fully develop our equation;
y = mx + c
y = 1 , x = -2 and m =
So,
1 = x (-2) + c
c = 1 + =
Now, the equation of the line is;
y = -2x +
Multiply through by 7,
7y = -14x + 25
The equation of the line is 7y = -14x + 25
Answer:
x = 16
y = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
the left part of the triangle can be solved first as it already has one angle and 1 side, we use trigonometry for this.
since we have 2 sides and 1 angle, to find the third side length we use the pythagoras theorem. a² + b² = c²
; 9² + 12² = c²
; 225 = c²
;√225 = c
; 15 = c
since we have all the lengths of the triangle, we can find out the angle opposite to the side length '9',
;
; x 9 = Sinx
36.86 = x
now, we look at the triangle as a whole, the top angle being 90 degrees, we know that we have 36.86.
; 90 - 36.86 = 53.13
; x Sin 90 = 20
y = 20
again, since we have 2 sides of a right angled triangle we use a² + b² = c²
we arrange this formula since we have the hypotenuse
; 20² - 12² = 256
; √256 = x
; 16 = x
