Answer:

B. They are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the gradient of (-6, -1) and (-11, 1)

m= y2 - y1/ x2 - x1

= 1 - (-1)/ -11 -(-6)

m = <u>-</u><u>2</u><u>/</u><u>5</u>

then you find the gradient of the other points in the same way

m = y2 - y 1/ x2 -x1

= -13 -(-8)/ -5 -(-3)

m = 5/2

to prove that they are perpendicular

m1×m2 = -1

-2/5 × 5/2 = <u>-</u><u> </u>1

hence they are perpendicular

What is the length, in units, of segment CD?
leonid [27]

Answer:

The answet is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find the angle of ACB using Sine Rule, sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse :

\sin(θ )  =  \frac{oppo.}{hypo.}

let \: oppo. = 4 \\ let \: hypo. = 5

\sin(θ)  =  \frac{4}{5}

θ = {\sin( \frac{4}{5} ) }^{ - 1}

θ = 53.1 \: (1d.p)

Given that line AB is parallel to line CD so ∠C = 90°. Next, you have to find the angle of ACD :

ACD = 90 - 53.1 = 36.9

Lastly, you can find the length of CD using Cosine rule, cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse :

\cos(θ)  =  \frac{adj.}{hypo.}

let \: θ = 36.9 \\ let \: adj. = 5 \\ let \: hypo. = CD

\cos(36.9  )  =  \frac{5}{CD}

CD \cos(36.9)  = 5

CD =  \frac{5}{ \cos(36.9) }

CD = 6.25 units\: (3s.f)

A graph is given below. Answer the following questions based off the graph:
Tcecarenko [31]

(a) The slope of the graph is \frac{2}{5}

(b) The equation of the line in point-slope form is y - 1 = \frac{2}{5} (x + 2.5)

(c) The y-intercept of the graph is (0 , 2)

(d) The y-intercept is correct

(e) We substitute x by zero because the line intersects y-axis at a point

its x-coordinate must be zero. Then we calculate the value of

y-coordinate when x = 0. The y-coordinate = 2, so the

y-intercept is (0 , 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line whose endpoints are (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2})

is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

The equation of a line in a point-slope form is:

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})

From the graph:

1. The line passes through points (-5 , 0) and (0 , 2)

2. Substitute these points in the rule of the slope to find it

3. Writ the equation of the line in the form of point-slope

(a)

∵ (x_{1},y_{1}) = (-5 , 0)

∵ (x_{2},y_{2}) = (0 , 2)

∴ m=\frac{(2-0)}{(0--5)}=\frac{2}{5}

The slope of the graph is \frac{2}{5}

(b)

∵ Point (-2.5 , 1) lies on the line

∴ (x_{1},y_{1}) = (-2.5 , 1)

∵ The point-slope form is ⇒ y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})

∵ m = \frac{2}{5}

- Substitute the coordinates of the point and the slope in the equation

∴ y - 1 = \frac{2}{5} (x - -2.5)

∴ y - 1 = \frac{2}{5} (x + 2.5)

The equation of the line in point-slope form is y - 1 = \frac{2}{5} (x + 2.5)

(c)

When the line intersects the y-axis at point (0 , b), then b is the

y-intercept

∵ The line intersects y-axis at point (0 , 2)

∴ The y-intercept is (0 , 2)

The y-intercept of the graph is (0 , 2)

(d)

Let us substitute x in the equation by zero

∵ x = 0

∵ The point slope form of the equation is y - 1 = \frac{2}{5} (x + 2.5)

∴ y - 1 = \frac{2}{5} (0 + 2.5)

∴ y - 1 = \frac{2}{5} (2.5)

∴ y - 1 = 1

- Add 1 to both sides

∴ y = 2

- When x = 0 then y = 2

∴ Point (0 , 2) is the y-intercept

The y-intercept is correct

(e)

We substitute x by zero because the line intersects y-axis at a point its

x-coordinate must be zero

Then we calculate the value of y-coordinate when x = 0

The y-coordinate = 2, so the y intercept is (0 , 2)
