Pretty sure it’s B I think
Answer:
8.9 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle = (1/2) b. h
40 = (1/2) x*x
80 = x^2
square root (80) = x
x=> 8.944.... inch
Rounding off you get 8.9 in.
The horizontal distance between the base of the ladder and the wall is: 11.8 foot
Input each points. (x,y) for each equation to find out if the system of equations are equivalent.
Point (-3,4) is a solution of this system of equations.
Point (-2,-6) isn't a solution of this system of equations.
Point (-4,3) is a solution of this system of equations.
Let us find the slopes of the two lines
ax+by=c, slope m1 = -a/b
bx-ay=c, slope m2 = b/a
m1*m2 = (-a/b)(b/a) = -1
Therefore the two lines are perpendicular so the answer is D
