Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line between two points can be calculated by dividing the difference of y values by the difference of x values

in this case

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{15-(-10)}{-15-6} = \frac{25}{-21} = \frac{-25}{21}$

Y=<br> Pls help solve for

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

$y=39\degree$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is a right angle triangle .

The known sides of the triangle that is opposite to angle y is 8 units while the side adjacent is 10 units.

The value of y can be calculated using the tangent ratio.

$\tan(y)=\frac{8}{10}$

We solve for y to get,

$y=arctan(\frac{4}{5})$

We evaluate to obtain,

$y=38.66$

$y=39\degree$ to the nearest degree

Triangle ABC has coordinates A (0, 1) B (0, 2) and C (3,2). If Triangle ABC is equivalent to triangle EDF, what is the measure o

Elanso [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Segment BC corresponds to segment DF. The length of BC is the distance between coordinates (0, 2) and (3, 2). These points are on the same horizontal line (y=2), so the distance between them is the difference of their x-coordinates: 3 - 0 = 3.
