a. Find the slope of AB.

b. Find tan n°.

c. Consider the statement: If a line with positive slope makes an acute angle of n° with the x-axis, then the slope of the line is tan n°. Do you think this statement is true or false? Explain.

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The slope of is 1:5.
  2. The value of is 1.5.
  3. The statement is true.

Step by step solution

01

Part a. Step-1 – Given

The given figure is:

02

Step-2 – To determine

We have to find the slope of AB↔.

03

Step-3 – Calculation 

Slope formula with two pointsx1,y1 â¶Ä‰a²Ô»å â¶Ä‰x2,y2is:

m=y2−y1x2−x1

The given points areA1,0andB3,3.

m=3−03−1=32=1.5

So, the slope ofAB↔ is 1:5

04

Part b. Step-1 – Given

The given figure is:

05

Step-2 – To determine

We have to find tann∘.

06

Step-3 – Calculation 

Slope formula with two pointsx1,y1 â¶Ä‰a²Ô»å â¶Ä‰x2,y2is:

tanθ=m=y2−y1x2−x1

Hereθ = the angle that the lines makes with the positive direction of thex−axis .

The given pointsA1,0are andB3,3.

tann∘=m=3−03−1=32=1.5tann∘=1.5

So, the value oftann∘ is 1.5.

07

Part c. Step-1 – Given

The given figure is:

08

Step-2 – To determine

We have to determine whether the statement is true or false and explain.

09

Step-3 – Calculation 

Slope formula with two pointsx1,y1 â¶Ä‰a²Ô»å â¶Ä‰x2,y2is:

m=y2−y1x2−x1

The given points areA1,0andB3,3.

m=3−03−1=32=1.5

Also,

tann∘=PerpendicularBase=32=1.5

So, the given statement is true.
