Given :

The diagonals of rhombus ABCD intersect at E.

∠CAD = 20°.

To Find :

The angle ∠CDA.

Solution :

We know, diagonals of a rhombus bisects each other perpendicularly.

So, ∠DEA = 90°.

In triangle ΔEAD :

∠EAD + ∠AED + ∠EDA = 180°

20° + 90° + ∠EDA = 180°

∠EDA = 70°

Now, we know diagonal of rhombus also bisect the angle between two sides .

So, ∠CDA = 2∠EDA

∠CDA = 2×70°

∠CDA =140°

Therefore, ∠CDA is 140°.

Answer:

The perpendicular line would be y = -2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must solve the original equation for y.

x - 2y = 7

-2y = -x + 7

y = 1/2x - 7/2

In order to find the equation of this line, we first have to note that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. Therefore, since the original line has a slope of 1/2, we know the new line will have a slope of -2. Now we can use that information along with the given point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -2(x + 3)

y - 2 = -2x - 6

y = -2x - 4
