In the rhombus, M<1=6y-6 . Find the value of y. a- 16 b- 12 c- 14 d- 17
is that perpendicular?
@bryanjonathanb
perpendicular is when two lines are formed to make a right angle
@KlOwNlOvE No i dont think its perpendicular
|dw:1407170076532:dw| real crappy drawing but you can't form right angles from that?
@KlOwNlOvE yea i dont think it perpenducliar b/c on the photo its just saying find Y dont do nothing else
the rhombus is perpendicular because two lines can form a right angle in that. Because it's perpendicular m will =90 so 90=6y-6 how would i get y by itself?
to subtract 6 from 90 ? & then divide 84 by 6 ?
the 6 is negative so you would add it to 90 then divide
@KlOwNlOvE lol i just got confused
@KlOwNlOvE wait nevermind the answer is 16 , right ? i just wrote the problem out and did what you said
lol when you need to get y by itself you need to do the reciprocal to the other side of the equal signn so with 90=6y-6 you would add 6 because its being subtracted the divide by 6 because its being multiplied
yes
alrighty thanks :) @KlOwNlOvE
you're welcome
