LINE PERPENDICULAR TO Y=1/5X+5 WITH THE POINT (-6,0)?????

Mathematics

<span>y=1/5x+5 with the point (-6, 0)

The line perpendicular to this line will have a slope that's the negative reciprocal of this one. So if the slope here is 1/5 (based on y=mx+b, where m is the slope), then the perpendicular slope would be -5/1.

So now that you have the point and the slope, use the point-slope formula.
y - y</span>₁ = m(x - x₁)
m = -5
(x₁, y₁) = (-6, 0)

y - 0 = -5(x + 6)
y = -5x - 30

y = -5x - 30 is the line perpendicular to y=1/5x+5.

You need to flip the slope (or number in front of the x) and sign of it to do the perpendicular part. This should give you: y=-5x+b. Now put the -6 in for the x, and the 0 in for the y. Simply solve for an answer of -30=b. Your final answer is: y=-5x-30

In the graphic below,

The external angle is suplementary to the internal angle close to it. We also know that the sum of all the internal angles of the triangle are equal to 180 degrees, this means that the angle "a" is suplementary to the sum of the angles "b" and "c". Through this logic, we can conclude that since:

\begin{gathered} \angle d=180-\angle a \\ \angle b+\angle c=180-\angle a \end{gathered}

Then we can conclude that:

\angle d=\angle b+\angle c

Therefore the statement is true, the exterior angle is equal to the sum of its remote interior angles.

Let's use an example:

On this example, the external angle is 120 degrees, therefore the sum of the remote interior angles must also be equal to that. Let's try:

x=75+45=120

The sum of the remote interior angles is equal to the external angle.
