for what value of k, the line joining 3x-ky+7=0 is perpendicular to the line joining (4 ,3) and ( 5, -3).
Schach [20]

Answer:

  • k = 18

=========

<h2>Given</h2>

<h3>Line 1</h3>
  • 3x - ky + 7 = 0

<h3>Line 2</h3>
  • Passing through the points (4, 3) and (5, - 3)

<h2>To find</h2>

  • The value of k, if the lines are perpendicular

<h2>Solution</h2>

We know the perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, that is the product of their slopes is - 1.

Find the slope of line 1 by converting the equation into slope-intercept from standard form:

<u><em>Info:</em></u>

  • <em>standard form is ⇒ ax + by + c = 0, </em>
  • <em>slope - intercept form is ⇒ y = mx + b, where m is the slope</em>

  • 3x - ky + 7 = 0
  • ky = 3x + 7
  • y = (3/k)x + 7/k

Its slope is 3/k.

Find the slope of line 2, using the slope formula:

  • m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (-3 - 3)/(5 - 4) = - 6/1 = - 6

We have both the slopes now. Find their product:

  • (3/k)*(- 6) = - 1
  • - 18/k = - 1
  • k = 18

So when k is 18, the lines are perpendicular.

PLEASE HELP!
leva [86]

Answer:

B. 56°

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that m∠R is 66° and m∠T is 122°.

We can apply the supplementary rule since ∠S and ∠T are a linear pair. So, we can use ∠T to find ∠S through 180° - 122° = 58°.

Now, we can use ∠R and ∠S to find ∠Q.

66° + 58° = 124°

180° - 124° = 56°

Whats the common factor of 18,27
Leviafan [203]

Well, it depends, there may be multiple common factors, if it's the greatest common factor, then there is only one.  The way to do this is to list all the factors of each number.


So Factors of

18: 1,2,3,6,9,18

27: 1,3,9,27

Common Factors : 1, 3, 9

Greatest Common Factor: 9
