Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the line to be found be Line 2

Given:

Line 1 :

y = 4x + 6

Since y = mx + b

We can substitute and find that the slope of Line 1 is 4

Therefore slope of Line 2 = (4)

Line 2:

Point - (1,6)

Slope - 4

Therefore: 6 = (4)(1) + b

So equating it we get : b = 2

What are the coordinates of the orthocenter of △JKL with vertices at J(−4, −1) , K(−4, 8) , and L(2, 8) ?

kompoz [17]

Answer:

K(-4,8) is the ortho center.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right angled triangle, The vertex of the right angle is the ortho center.

Here we are given

J(-4,-1), K(-4,8) & L(2,8)

Using distance formula we get

$JK^{2}= (-4+4)^{2}+ (8+1)^{2}=0+81=81$

$KL^{2}= (-4-2)^{2}+ (8+-8)^{2}=36+0=36$

$JL^{2}= (-4-2)^{2}+ (8+1)^{2}=36+81=117$

So we can say that

$JK^2 + KL^2=JL^2$

By converse of pythagorean theorem we get

Hence the Vertex of the right angle is K(-4,8)

K(-4,8) is the ortho center.
