Answer:

y = -1/4x

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel to each other, they have the same slope.

The first line is y = -1/4x - 2. Its slope is -1/4. A line parallel to this one will also have a slope of -1/4.

Plug this value (-1/4) into your standard point-slope equation of y = mx + b.

y = -1/4x + b

To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, it is (8, -2). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.

-2 = -1/4(8) + b

To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x (8)

-2 = -2 + b

Now, add 2 to both sides to isolate b.

0 = b

Plug this into your standard equation.

y = -1/4x

This equation is parallel to your given equation (y = -1/4x - 2) and contains point (8, -2)

Hope this helps!

Pt 2) Just find the measure
Radda [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

<YOZ = 60°

When two lines intersect each other, then four angles are formed. The angles that are opposite to each other at the intersection point are known as <em>vertically</em><em> </em><em>opposite</em><em> </em><em>angles</em><em>.</em><em> </em>VERTICALLY OPPOSITE ANGLES ARE ALWAYS EQUAL.

If < VOX = 90⁰, then <VOW = 60⁰.

<VOW and <YOZ are vertically opposite angles.
