Point a is at (-2,4) => (x1,y1)
Midpoint is (2.5, 3.5) => (a,b)
Point B is (x2, y2)
To find midpoint we use formula
a= 2.5, b= 3.5, x1= -2 and y1= 4
Plug in all the values and findout x2, y2
multiply 2 on both sides to remove fraction
(5 = -2+x2 , 7 = 4+ y2)
5 = -2+x2, so x2= 7
7 = 4+ y2, so y2= 3
The point B is ( 7, 3)
The exact value of cos120 if the measure 120 degrees intersects the unit circle at point (-1/2,√3/2) is 0.5
<h3>Solving trigonometry identity</h3>
If an angle of measure 120 degrees intersects the unit circle at point (-1/2,√3/2), the measure of cos(120) can be expressed as;
Cos120 = cos(90 + 30)
Using the cosine rule of addition
cos(90 + 30) = cos90cos30 - sin90sin30
cos(90 + 30) = 0(√3/2) - 1(0.5)
cos(90 + 30) = 0 - 0.5
cos(90 + 30) = 0.5
Hence the exact value of cos120 if the measure 120 degrees intersects the unit circle at point (-1/2,√3/2) is 0.5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
first we gotta find the slope of the first line
(-4,-3),(4,1)
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (1- (-3) / (4 - (-4) = (1 + 3) / (4 + 4) = 4/8 = 1/2
so the slope is 1/2.....so we are looking for a line that is perpendicular....perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes...all that means is flip the slope and change the sign....so the slope we need is :
1/2....flip it....2/1.....change the sign....-2.....we need a -2 slope
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope = -2
(-4,3)...x1 = -4 and y1 = 3
now sub
y - 3 = -2(x - (-4) =
y - 3 = -2(x + 4) <=====
The answer is multiplication
