Answer: 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the slope of AB. To do that, I will use the equation

y2 - y1/x2 - x1

Plug in the coordinates.

11 - 13/6 - 1

Simplify.

-2/5

<u>Our slope for line AB is -2/5</u>. Now we can find the slope that is perpendicular to it that passes through the point (5, 8).

To do that, just take the slope from AB and make it an opposite value and reciprocal.

Our slope is 5/2.

If line KM bisects angle JKL, angle JKL = 92 degrees, and angle MKL = (5x+1) degrees, find the value of
kherson [118]

The value of the variable x is found to be x = 9.

<h3>What is termed as angle bisector?</h3>
  • In geometry, an angle bisector is a line that divides an angle into two equal angles.
  • A bisector is something that divides a shape or thing into two equal portions.
  • An angle bisector is a ray that divides an angle into two equal components of the same measurement.

A bisected angle divides the two sides in equals.

JKM = LKM

As, both are equal.

Then, each of these angles are 1/2 the angle JKL.

1/2 JKL = MKL

1/2 ×( 92) = 5x + 1

Further simplifying;

46 = 5x+1

Subtract 1 from each side

46-1 = 5x

45 = 5x

Divide each side by 5

45/5 = 5x/5

x = 9

Thus, the value of the unknown variable is found to be x = 9 units.

gregori [183]
3,000. You take 15,000 and multiply by .4 to get how much she spent on rent (6,000). They you subtract the rent money from her total pay to get her money that she spent on living expenses, clothes and entertainment in total (9,000). Since she spent her money in six parts (3+2+1), you divide 9,000 by 6 to get 1,500 to get each part. Since for entertainment she has two parts you multiply 1,500 by 2 to get 3,000.
