What is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=4x-5 and passes through (-4,6)

Answer:

y=-1/4x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1.

Our given line:

y=4x-5

the slope (m) in it is 4. To find the slope of the perpendicular line:

4m=-1

divide by 4

m=-1/4

the slope of the new line is -1/4

here's our equation so far:

y=-1/4x+b

Since the line will pass through the point (-4,6) we can use it to solve for b (y intercept)

so substitute (-4,6) into the equation

6=-1/4(-4)+b

6=1+b

5=b

the y intercept is 5

so our equation is:

y=-1/4x+5

hope this helps! :D

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

10a: △ABC is an Equilateral triangle with all acute angles.

10b: △BCD is A scalene triangle with all acute angles.

10c: △BDE is An Isosceles triangle with one obtuse angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

10) Looking at the diagram at the bottom left;

- △ABC has 3 equal internal angles and as such, it means it will have 3 equal angles.

Thus, we can classify it as; Equilateral triangle with all acute angles.

- △BCD has 3 unequal angles. Thus, it's 3 sides are not equal. Also all the angles are less than 90°.

We can classify it as;

A scalene triangle with all acute angles

- △BDE has 2 equal angles and one angle greater than 90°. This means it has 2 equal sides.

Thus, we can classify it as;

- An Isosceles triangle with one obtuse angle.
