Answer:

x = 7

AC = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

According to the parallelogram,

BD = 2BE

5x-3 = 2(2x+2)

5x-3 = 4x+4

5x-4x = 4+3

x = 7

Hence the value of x is 7

Also AC = 2AE

AC = 2(4x-6)

AC = 8x - 12

AC = 8(7) - 12

AC= 56-12

AC = 44

Hence the measure of AC is 44

Write the equation of a line perpendicular to y=3x+1and goes through the point ( 6,2) y=−13x+4 y=−13x−4 y=3x+4 y=3x−4

Korolek [52]

Answer:

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the perpendicular line

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal

(the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

In this problem

we have

$y=3x+1$

The equation of the given line is $m=3$

the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line is

$m=-\frac{1}{3}$

step 2

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=-\frac{1}{3}$

$(x1,y1)=(6,2)$

substitute

$y-2=-\frac{1}{3}(x-6)$

Convert to slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

Distribute right side

$y-2=-\frac{1}{3}x+2$

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x+2+2$

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x+4$

The measure of angle 3 from the figure is 110 degrees

<h3>Lines and angles</h3>

An angle is the intersection between two lines. From the given figure, we have the following parameters

m∠1= 40°,

m∠2= 70°.

Required

Measure of angle 3

The sum of the interior angles of the triangle is equal to the exterior

Sum of interior = <1 + <2

Sum of interior = 40 + 70

Sum of interior =110 degrees

Hence the measure of angle 3 from the figure is 110 degrees
