1.
the slope of the line y=3x+2 is the coefficient of x, that is 3.
2.
the slope of any line perpendicular to the line y=3x+2, is m, such that:
so
3.
so any line with equation y=-1/3x+k is perpendicular to y=3x+2.
moreover, the line y=-1/3x (so k=0) is the line passing through the origin
(0, 0) and perpendicular to y=3x+2
4. This means that the closest point of y=3x+2 to the origin is the intersection point of lines y=3x+2 and y=-1/3x
5.
to find this point:
3x+2=(-1/3)x
x(3+1/3)=-2
x(9/3+1/3)=-2
x*10/3=-2
thus y is : (-1/3)(-6/10)=0.2

Hope this this is your answer
Answer:
19.4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
When calculating distances using perpendicular angles, we use trig functions such as Sin, Cos, and Tan.
- Sine is defined in a perpendicular triangle as the ratio of the opposite side to the angle over the hypotenuse.
- Cosine is defined in a perpendicular triangle as the ratio of the adjacent side to the angle over the hypotenuse.
- Tangent is defined in a perpendicular triangle as the ratio of the opposite side over the adjacent side.
Because our angle and know side value are across from each other and we need to know the hypotenuse, we chose to use Sine.
We set up the equation 
.
We isolate h by multiplying h across the equal sign and dividing sin (68) across as well. 
And finally we have 
. We input to calculator.

Okay, don’t freak out. It’s more simple than it seems.
To find the area of this rectangle you use length x length
Let’s look for the length first
Use the bottom left and right points
(-2.25,-1) and (2.25,-1)
The length is a horizontal line so we use the x-coordinates. The distance from -2.25 to 2.25 is 4.5
Now let’s find the height. Let’s use the top left and bottom left coordinates.
(-2.25,4) and (-2.25,-1)
The height is a vertical line. The y-coordinates. Their difference is 5.
So 4.5 x 5 = 22.5
Answer:
(x + 5)^2 + (y + 8)^2 = 6^2
Step-by-step explanation:
A circle formula: (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
We are given diameter. To find the radius divide diameter by 2.
d = 12
12/2 = r = 6
H and K are given to be (-5 , -8)
(x - (-5))^2 + (y - (-8))^2 = 6^2
(x + 5)^2 + (y + 8)^2 = 6^2
I have plot this equation to confirm my answer is correct where the origin is (-5 , -8) and has a radius of 6.
