Answer:
The slope is 1.181818182 or just round to 1.18.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this. The Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. We already have a and b, we need to find c. 24^2 + 7^2 is 625. Then, we need to find the square root of 625 to find c. The answer is 25. x = 25.
Y = 4x + 5
slope = 4
perpendicular, slope = - 1/4
passing thru (8,3)
equation
y - 3 = -1/4 (x - 8)
y - 3 = -1/4x + 2
y = -1/4x +5
answer is D. y = -1/4x +5
Answer:
21.74 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
We use Cosine because we are dealing with the Adj and Hyp
Cos 85 = x/20
x = 20 Cos 85
x = 1.74 feet away from the base of the wall.
Since the ladder is 20 foot long, the total distance will be 1.74 + 20 = 21.74 ft
