A. 9 only bc only 9 can be equal to 9 if it was absolutely value then the answer would be 9 and -9
In ∆FDH, there are two slash marks in two of its legs. This indicates that this triangle is isosceles. If a triangle is isosceles, then it will have two congruent sides and therefore have two congruent angles.
In ∆FDH, angle D is already given to us as the measure of 80°. We can find out the measure of the other angles of this triangle by using the equation:
80 + 2x = 180
Subtract 80 from both sides of the equation.
2x = 100
Divide both sides by 2.
x = 50
This means that angle F and angle H in ∆FDH both measure 50°.
Now, moving over to the next smaller triangle in the picture is ∆DHG. In this triangle, there are also two legs that are congruent which once again indicates that this triangle is isosceles.
First, we have to solve for angle DHG and we do that by using the information obtained from solving for the angles of the other triangle.
**In geometry, remember that two or more consecutive angles that form a line will always be supplementary; the angles add up to 180°.**
In this case angle DHF and angle DHG are consecutive angles which form a linear pair. So, we can use the equation:
Angle DHF + Angle DHG = 180°
50° + Angle DHG = 180°.
Angle DHG = 130°.
Now that we know the measure of one angle in ∆DHG, we can use the same method as the previous step for solving the missing angles. Use the equation:
130 + 2x = 180
2x = 50
x = 25
The other two missing angles of ∆DHG are 25°. This means that the measure of angle 1 is also 25°.
Solution: 25°

From left to right, (1,3) is first and then comes (5,-2). Always remember when finding slopes without equations, the rule is RISE over RUN, to the numerator and denominator, respectively.
The y value of the second coordinates becomes negative which is unlike the y value in the first coordinates, which means our slope is downward, meaning it has a negative sign in front.
In every slope, there’s a numerator, being the rise, and a denominator, being the run.
To find the rise, we must look at the y values. Starting at 3 going to -2 has a space of 5 units, making that our numerator.
To find the run, the first x value is 1 and the second is 5, making a space of 4, which is out denominator.
With these two numbers and the negative sign, we get -(5/4) as our slope.
