The slope of a line perpendicular to another is the negative reciprocal of the original.  The negative reciprocal of -1 is 1.  The equation will read:

y=x+b

To solve for the y-intercept (b), plug in the given values of x and y:

4=-2+b

<em>*Add 2 to both sides*</em>

I don’t know how to do this ! Help?
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The information we need is that the angle between the sides (that is, angle TVU for triangle TVU and angle WVX for triangle WVX) need to be equal.

These angles are vertically opposite angles, because they are formed by two lines crossing, so these angles are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The SAS Congruence Theorem says that if two triangles have 2 equal sides and the angle between these sides are also equal, the triangles are congruent.

In this question, we know that the sides UV and VW are congruent, as V is the midpoint of UW. We also know that TV = VX, so now we have two equal sides for each triangle.

The information we need is that the angle between the sides (that is, angle TVU for triangle TVU and angle WVX for triangle WVX) need to be equal.

These angles are vertically opposite angles, because they are formed by two lines crossing, so these angles are equal.

Now we can conclude that the triangles are congruent.
