Answer 3

I think it's obvious ,right?

Answer 4

\[slope of any line m =\frac{ 5-6 }{5-\left( -1 \right) }=\frac{ -1 }{6 }\]
slope of line perpendicular to the given line=-1/m=6
\[\mid point of R and S=(\frac{ -1+5 }{2 },\frac{ 6+5 }{2 } )=( 2,\frac{ 11 }{2 } )\]
Eq. of any line through (2,11/2 ) and slope 6 is
\[y-\frac{ 11 }{2 }=6\left( x-2 \right)\]
2y-11=6x-12
or 2 y-6 x+1=0

Answer 5

okay, I think I understand the process of calculating. thank you!

Answer 6

bisector of R and S= midpoint of R and S
