Perpendicular = opposite sign and reciprocal slope
Slope would be 3
Y = 3x + b, plug in point
9 = 3(5) + b, b = -6
Solution: y = 3x - 6
Answer:

- [Right Triangle Only] sin∅ = opposite over hypotenuse
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
We have a right triangle. We can use trig to find the angle.
<u>Step 2: Identify Variables</u>
Angle = <em>x</em>
Opposite = 15
Hypotenuse = 23
<u>Step 3: Find Angle </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute: sinx° = 15/23
- Inverse: x° = sin⁻¹(15/23)
- Evaluate: x = 40.7057°
Since the values are the same on both sides the matrix value is a=1
