Hello!
Answer:
To solve, we will need to use Right-Triangle Trigonometry:
Begin by solving for angles ∠S and ∠R using tangent (tan = opp/adj)
tan ∠S = a / (1/2b)
tan ∠S = 3√5 / 14
tan ∠S ≈ 0.479
arctan 0.479 = m∠S (inverse)
m∠S and m∠R ≈ 25.6°
Use cosine to solve for the hypotenuse, or the missing side-length:
cos ∠S = 14 / x
x · cos (25.6) = 14
x = 14 / cos(25.6)
x ≈ 15.52
Both triangles are congruent, so we can go ahead and find the perimeter of the figure:
RS + RQ + QS = 28 + 15.52 + 15.52 = 59.04 units.
Hope this helped you! :)
Since it is perpendicular to y=3x-1, the slope must be a negative reciprocal.
there the slope of the perpendicular line is
So now we have,
To find b, we use the point that the line passes through and substitute it to the y and x values.
which would give us b=5/3
Therefore, the equation of the line is
