Answer:
44 units length
Step-by-step explanation:
The side splitter theorem states that if a line is parallel to a side of a triangle and the line intersects the other two sides, then this line divides those two sides proportionally. Therefore:
20/10 = x/22
20/10*22 = x
44 = x
Answer:
y = -x - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Midpoint of the line:
x = (x1 + x2)/2 = (-8 + -4)/2 = -12/2 = -6
y = (y1 + y2)/2 = (-5 + 1)/2 = -4/2 = -2
so midpoint is (-6,-2)
Slope of the line: Slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-1 - -5)/(-4 - -8) = (-1 + 5)/(-4 + 8) = 4/4 = 1
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another
so slope of the perpendicular line is -1/1 is -1
y = mx + b
y = -x + b
Using (-6,-2)
-2 = -(-6) + b
-2 = 6 + b
b = -8
so y = -x - 8
-6 1/3 because it looks less than -6.375 which would mean that it is in fact bigger on the number scale.
