Answer:

y=6x-2 is perpendicular to the 6y=-x+7

y=6x+1 is parallel to the y=6x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

if product of two lines gradient is -1 than lines are perpendicular

gr y=6x-2

y=mx+c m=gradient

1)m=6

2)m=-1/6

3)m=6

if gradients of 2 lines are equal they are paralel

How would I do this?

I'm not sure about part B, but part A will have the answer "if Ron eats lunch today, then he will drink a glass of milk" (without quotes of course)

The idea is that we have these arguments in symbolic form
P = Ron eats lunch today
Q = Ron eats a sandwich
R = Ron will drink a glass of milk

The format is
"If P then Q" ----> "if Q then R" so therefore "If P then R"

We see that P leads to Q, then Q leads to R. So overall P leads to R. We connect them as a chain of sorts. We can skip over Q since we know the first point will lead to the last. Think of it as a shortcut of sorts.

Calculate the area of triangle ABC with altitude CD, given A (6,0) B(1,5) C (2,0) and D (4,2)

Elina [12.6K]

So hmm check the picture below

the height or altitude is CD
and the base is AB

how long are those? well $\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\
\begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
% (a,b)
A&({{ 6}}\quad ,&{{ 0}})\quad 
% (c,d)
B&({{ 1}}\quad ,&{{ 5}})\\\\
C&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ 0}})\quad 
% (c,d)
D&({{ 4}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})
\end{array}\qquad 
% distance value
d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}
\\\\\\
AB=\sqrt{(1-6)^2+(5-0)^2}\qquad \qquad CD=\sqrt{(4-2)^2+(2-0)^2}$
