Answer:

C. y = 1/2x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 ) to find the line parallel to y = 1 /2 x − 8 .

y = 1 /2 x − 14 PARALLEL

...................................................................................................................................................

Find the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 ) to find the line perpendicular to y = 1 /2 x − 8 .

y = − 2 x − 29 PERPENDICULAR

What type of information do you need to be given to prove two triangles are congruent?

marusya05 [52]

If the hypotenuse and leg of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, the right triangles are congruent. The "included angle" in SAS is the angle formed by the two sides of the triangle being used. The "included side" in ASA is the side between the angles being used.
