Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciproclas. That means their product equals -1.

If you know the slope of a line, to find the slope of a perpendicular line, flip the slope and change the sign.

Given line: slope = -2

-2 is the same as -2/1

Flip it: -1/2

Change the sign: 1/2

Answer: 1/2

In circle R with QRS=90 and QR= 3 units find the length of arc QS round to the nearest hundredth
luda_lava [24]

Hello, I Am BrotherEye

Answer:

27.92 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius (qr) = r = 16 units

<QŘS = θ = 82°

Length of an arc = (Θ / 360) * 2πr

L = (θ / 360) *2πr

L = (82 / 360) * 2π * 16

L = 0.2777 * 100.53

L = 27.917 units

L = 27.92 unit

Best Of Luck
