CE ⊥ CF because m∠ECA + m∠FCA = 90°
Step-by-step explanation:
In ∆ABC
- On the extension of the side BC , draw a line segment CD ≅ CA
- Draw the segment AD
- The line segment CE is the angle bisector of ∠ACB
- The line segment CF is the median towards AD in ∆ ACD
We want to prove that CF ⊥ CE
Look to the attached figure
In Δ ABC
∵ CE is the bisector of angle ACB
∴ ∠ACE ≅ ∠BCE
In Δ ACD
∵ CA = CD
∴ Δ ACD is an isosceles triangle
∵ AD is the median towards AD
- In any isosceles triangle the median from a vertex to its opposite
side bisects this vertex
∴ AD bisects ∠ACD
∴ ∠ACF ≅ ∠DCF
∵ BCD is a straight segment
∵ CE , CA , CF are drawn from point C
∴ m∠BCE + m∠ACE + m∠ACF + m∠DCF = 180°
∵ m∠ACE ≅ m∠BCE
∵ m∠ACF ≅ m∠DCF
- Replace m∠BCE by m∠ACE and m∠DCF by m∠ACF
∴ m∠ACE + m∠ACE + m∠ACF + m∠ACF = 180°
∴ 2 m∠ACE + 2 m∠ACF = 180°
- Divide all terms by 2
∴ m∠ACE + m∠ACF = 90°
∴ EC ⊥ CF
CE ⊥ CF because m∠ECA + m∠FCA = 90°

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of an equation for a straight line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).
We can calculate the slope from the two given points, (6,-3) and (-6,-5). Slope is Rise/Run, where Rise is the change in y and Run is the change in x.
From the two given points, starting at (-6,-5) and going to (6,-3):
Rise = (-3 - (-5)) = +2
Run = (6 - (-6)) = 12
Rise/Run (slope) = 2/12 or 1/6
The equation becomes y = (1/6)x + b
We can find b by enterieng either of the two given points and solving for b. I'll pick (6,-3):
y = (1/6)x + b
-3 = (1/6)*(6) + b
-3 = 1 + b [Now you can see why I chose (6,-3)]
b = -4
The equation is y = (1/6)x - 4
