Answer:

y = -2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude will be a line perpendicular the the opposite side DE.

The slope of DE = (3 - -1) / (3 - -5)

= 4/8 = 1/2

So the slope of the altitude = -1 / 1/2 = -2

Thus the equation of the altitude through F (1, -5) can be found using the point-slope form y - y1 = m(x - x1):-

y - -5 = -2(x - 1)

y + 5 = -2x + 2

y = -2x + 2 - 5

y = -2x - 3 (answer)

Find the unknown measure of the rectangle 9m perimeter=42 meters

Harman [31]

12m; if one side is 9m then that means 42 - 9 - 9 would yield the size of the two remaining sides together. 42-18=24 24 divided between the two sides left means each remaining side had to be 12m

\Grace is 1.65 meters tall. At 3 p.m., she measures the length of a tree's shadow to be 25.35 meters. She stands 20.9 meters awa

Anika [276]

Grace's height and the tree's height are related by equivalent ratios

The height of the tree is 2.00 meters

Grace's height is given as:

$\mathbf{h = 1.65}$

When she measured the length of the tree's shadow, we have:

$\mathbf{l = 20.9m}$ --- the length of her shadow

$\mathbf{L = 25.35m}$ --- the length of the tree's shadow

The height (H) of the tree is calculated using the following equivalent ratio

$\mathbf{h:H = l:L}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{1.65:H = 20.9:25.35}$

Express as fractions

$\mathbf{\frac H{1.65} =\frac{25.35}{20.9}}$

Multiply both sides by 1.65

$\mathbf{H=\frac{25.35}{20.9} \times 1.65}$

Simplify

$\mathbf{H=2.00}$

Hence, the approximated height of the tree is 2.00 meters
