Given :

The points P (2, -3) & Q (-5, -3) whose ordinates are same.

To Find :

To which axis the line PQ is parallel.

Solution :

In given points the ordinates are same.

Therefore, the line is parallel to the x- axis.

Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the equation of the line that has a slope of 0 and passes through the point (6,-8)

Fofino [41]

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-8})~\hspace{10em} slope = 0 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-8)=0(x-6)\implies y+8=0\implies y=-8$

The perimeter of a triangle is 170 feet and the sides are in the ratio of 25:14:12. Find the area of the triangle.

Viktor [21]

Let
x,y, and z the long sides of the triangle

we know that

x+y+z=170 ft------> equation 1
x/y=25/14----> y=14x/25------> equation 2
y/z=14/12-----> equation 3
x/z=25/12----> z=12x/25------> equation 4

substitute equation 2 and equation 4 in equation 1
x+[14x/25]+[12x/25]=170------> multiply by 25 both sides
25x+14x+12x=4250
51x=4250
x=4250/51
x=250/3
y=14x/25------> y=(250/3)*(14/25)----> y=140/3
z=12y/14-----> (140/3)*12/14----> z=40

Using Heron's formula,
Area of the triangle = √s (s-a) (s-b) (s-c)
where s is the semiperimeter
s=170/2-----> s=85 ft
Area=√85*[85-250/3]*[85-140/3]*[85-40]
Area=9.22*[1.67]*[38.33]*[45]------> Area=26558.21 ft²

the answer is
26558.21 ft²
