Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of perpindicular lines must be negative reciprocals of each other -- while -4 and 4 are negative to each other, the negative recipricocal for -4 is 1/4 and -1/4 for 4.

The slopes of parallel lines must be the same, so these are not parallel.

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the unknown side of the right triangle.

The length of hypotenuse is 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Vertical side = a = 15

Horizontal side = b = 36

Hypotenuse = c

Using pythagorean theorem

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\(15)^2+(36)^2=c^2\\225+1296=c^2\\1521=c^2\\c^2=1521$

Taking square root on both sides

$\sqrt{c^2}=\sqrt{1521}\\c=39$

The length of hypotenuse is 39.

5x-2y=30 complete the missing solution to the equation

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

I would have to go with x = 8 and y = 5, meaning the solution is (8, 5).

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x - 2y = 30$

$5(8) - 2(5) = 30$

$40 - 10 = 30$

$30 = 30$
