Choose the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (-2,-1)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vinil7 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

y =-1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a point (-2,-1)

Also given that a horizontal line passes through the above point.

We have to find the equation of the horizontal line.

We know that any straight line in xy plane is of the form

y = mx+b where m=slope of line and b = y intercept.

Here given that the line is horizontal and hence the angle it makes with x axis is 0.

Slope of line= m = tan 0 =0

Hence equation of line using point slope form is

y-y1 = m(x-x1) .  Here m =0 and (x1,y1) = (-2,-1)

Hence equaiton of line is

y+1 =0(x+2)

Or y =-1

So option A is right answer.

Determine whether the triangles are congruent by sss sas asa aas hl
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Congruent by SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

The three given sides of one triangle is shown to be equal to the corresponding sides of the other triangle.

This means that all threes sides of one are congruent to all corresponding sides of the other triangle.

By the Side-Side-Side Congruence Theorem, we can conclude that both triangles are congruent.
