Answer:

y = x - 4

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals—multiplying their slopes result in -1.

Given the slope of a line m = -1, then it means that the slope of the other line must be 1 (because multiplying the slope of line 1  (m1 = -1), and the slope of the other line (m2 = 1) results in: -1 × 1 = -1).

Therefore, given the slope of line 2 (m2 = 1), and the point (2, -2), we could plug these values into the slope-intercept form and solve for the y-intercept (b):

y = mx + b

-2 = 1(2) + b

-2 = 2 + b

Subtract 2 from both sides to solve for b:

-2 - 2 = 2 - 2 + b

-4 = b

Therefore, the y-intercept (b) = -4.

Hence, the equation of the perpendicular line is: y = x - 4

What must the value of x be, so that a parallel to b, m∠2 = 70°, and m∠7=(3x + 10)°?
Ksju [112]
70=3x+10
Subtract 10 from both sides
60=3x
Divide both sides by 3
20=x
x=20
