A2
Bsquare root of 10
C4
D10

Verified Answer :

  1. lines j and k because they have the same slope.
    2.d because -1/3 is the opposite slope of 3 and it passes through that point.

Answer:

1)a. j and k

2) d. \(y =  \frac{-1}[3}x+3\)

3)a. (6, 12)

4)d. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Lines are said to parallel if their slopes are same.

General form of line = \(y = mx+c\)  --1

where m is the slope

On comparing all lines with 1

So, Slope of line j = \(\frac{1}{4}\)

Slope of line k = \(\frac{1}{4}\)

Slope of line l = 3

Slope of line m = 4

Slope of line j and k are same

So, Option a is correct.

a. j and k

2) Find the equation of a line perpendicular to y-3x=-8 that passes through the point (3, 2).

y=-8+3x

On comparing with 1

Slope of given line is 3

Now slope of a line which is perpendicular to the given line

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1

So, \(3 \times \frac{-1}{3}=-1\)

So, slope of perpendicular line is  \(\frac{-1}{3}\)

General form of line = \(y = mx+c\)  -1

Substitute m = \(\frac{-1}{3}\) and passing points (3,2)

\(2 = 3\times \frac{-1}[3}+c\)

\(3=c\)

So, Now substitute value of m and c in 1

\(y =  \frac{-1}[3}x+3\)

Hence the equation of a line perpendicular to y-3x=-8 that passes through the point (3, 2) is \(y =  \frac{-1}[3}x+3\)

Option d is correct.

3) Find the point, M, that divide segment segment AB into a ratio of 5:2 if A is at (1, 2) and B is at (8, 16).

m:n=5:2

\((x_1,y_1)=(1,2)\)

\((x_2,y_2)=(8,16)\)

To find coordinates of M we will sue section formula:

\(x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}\) and \(y=\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\)

\(x=\frac{5(8)+2(1)}{5+2}\)     and \(y=\frac{5(16)+2(2)}{5+2}\)

\(x=\6\)     and \(y=12\)

Thus the coordinates of M is (6,12)

Hence Option A is correct.

4). Find the distance between (4, 2) and (-4, -4).

\(d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\)

\((x_1,y_1)=(4,2)\)

\((x_2,y_2)=(-4,-4)\)

Substitute the values in the formula :

\(d=\sqrt{(-4-4)^2+(-4-2)^2}\)

\(d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-6)^2}\)

\(d=\sqrt{64+36}\)

\(d=\sqrt{100}\)

\(d=10\)

Thus the distance is 10

Hence Option D is correct.
