Answer: y=-2x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

If ANGL is a square, then NG and LG are adjacent sides.

Adjacent sides are perpendicular.  [Each angle is 90°]

The equation of line NG is Y=\dfrac12 X-6.

By comparing it to equation in slope intercept form y=mx+c ( where , m= slope , c=y-interecpt)

slope =\dfrac12

Let slope of LG be <em>n</em>, then

n\times \dfrac{1}{2}=-1 [Product of slopes of two perpendicular line =-1]

\Rightarrow n=-2

Equation of a line passes through (a,b) and have slope m is given by :-

(y-b)=m(x-a)

Equation of LG :

(y-1)=-2(x-(-5))\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-1=-2x-10\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=-2x-9 [In intercept form]

Triangles A and B are similar.<br> If the slope of Y is 4/5 what's the slope of x?
sdas [7]
Similar triangle Hypotenuse must have similar slopes. If you'll notice, y & x are parallel lines, so they will have equivalent slope

In short, Your Answer would be 4/5

Hope this helps!
