Answer:
A ≈ 65.4°
Step-by-step explanation:
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is intended to remind you of the trig relations associated with pairs of sides. For angle A, given sides b and c are the adjacent side and the hypotenuse, respectively. The appropriate relation is ...
Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
cos(A) = b/c
A = arccos(b/c) = arccos(2.5/6)
A ≈ 65.4°
Answer: They are not perpendicular because their slopes are not negative reciprocals.
Step-by-step explanation:
For these two lines to be perpendicular, their slopes have to be negative reciprocals.
Slope of FG.
F = (-4, 1)
G = (0, -2)
= (Y₂ - Y₁) / (X₂ - X₁)
= (-2 - 1) / (0 + 4)
= -3/4
Slope of HJ
J = (0 , 4)
H = (-4, -2)
Slope = (Y₂ - Y₁) / (X₂ - X₁)
= (-2 - 4) / (-4 -0)
= 6/4
= 3/2
<em>The slopes of these lines are not negative reciprocals so these lines are not perpendicular. </em>
