The equation of line CD is y = 3x − 3. Write an equation of a line perpendicular to line CD in slope-intercept form that contains point (3, 1). y = 3x + 0 y = 3x − 8 y = negative 1 over 3x + 2 y = negative 1 over 3x + 0

i put c

OpenStudy (dan815):

yeah thats right

OpenStudy (dan815):

good job :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok next one

what are the instructions @king_kong_killer ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I agree, the answer is 16 8*4/2 = 16

06.01 LC) Quadrilateral ABCD has all congruent sides and opposite angles that are congruent. What classification can be given to ABCD? Parallelogram Rectangle Rhombus Square

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i chose a

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hint: Quadrilateral ABCD has all congruent sides

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ie all sides are equal to one another

OpenStudy (anonymous):

soooo square?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

close

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

but it doesn't say that all angles are equal to one another (or that all angles are right angles)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rhombus?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The distance formula can be used to prove that a quadrilateral has a right angle congruent angles parallel sides congruent sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got c

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what is the distance formula used for?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if you know the distance between two points, then you also know what?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

|dw:1431048736729:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

If we know the distance from A to B, then we also know what else?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that dc is the same?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

we also know the length of segment AB, agreed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so we can use the distance formula to compute the lengths

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

then we can compare the lengths to see if they are congruent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its d?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Line AB contains points A (0, 0) and B (2, 2). Line CD contains points C (3, 1) and D (5, 3). Lines AB and CD are parallel perpendicular neither

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i put a

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what is the slope of the line through A & B ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

how about the slope for CD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2/-2

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

not quite

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

make sure you subtract in the same order

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

slope formula m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got it back wards
