(Y-Y1)/(X-X1)
(-9-(-29))/(7-15)
20/-8
-2 1/2
The slope is -2 1/2
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
0.4x - 1.2 = 0.15x + 0.8
0.4x - 1.2 + 1.2 = 0.4x
0.15x + 0.8 + 1.2 = 0.15x + 2
0.4x = 0.15x + 2
0.4x - 0.15x = 0.25x
0.15x + 2 - 0.15x = 2
0.25x = 2
0.25x / 0.25 = x
2 / 0.25 = 8
x = 8
The law of sines can be used to find the missing side lengths.
... RP = sin(60°)/sin(45°)·10 = 10√(3/2) ≈ 12.247
... PS = sin(75°)/sin(45°)·10 ≈ 13.660
Then the perimeter is
... perimeter = RS + RP + PS
... = 10 + 12.247 + 13.660 ≈ 35.91 . . . .units
