Answer:

m = - 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals, which means that their product is -1

We can write the equation

4*x - 5*y + 13 = 0

as: 5*y = 4*x + 13 or

y = (4/5)*x + 13 (1)

Equation (1) is the equation of a straight line in its slope point form, 4/5 is the slope, according to this the slope of a perpendicular line is

-5/4

In the equation 5x-2=-x-20, What is the value of x? a. 2 b. -1 c. -3 d. -2

mestny [16]

Answer:

C choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x - 2 = - x - 20 \\$

First, we move the same terms to the same side.

$5x + x = - 20 + 2 \\ 6x = - 18$

Then we move 6 to divide - 18.

$x = \frac{ - 18}{6} \\ x = - 3$

How do I find the arc length with given radius & central angel?

ella [17]

The length of an arc subtended by a central angle is proportional to the circle's circumference. If the given central angle has measure $\theta$ and the circle has radius $r$ , then the arc has length $\ell$ such that

$\dfrac{\ell}\theta=\dfrac{2\pi r}{2\pi}=r$

where $\theta$ is given in radians. Then

$\ell=r\theta$

If $\theta$ is given in degrees, then

$\dfrac{\ell}\theta=\dfrac{2\pi r}{360}\implies\ell=\dfrac{\theta\pi r}{180}$
