What is a line perpendicular to a line segmentt and passing through its midpoint?
There is no name for it except "A line perpendicular to a line segment and passing through its midpoint".
What is the shortest path between a line and a point not on that line?
The shortest path is a line perpendicular to the given line that passes through the given point.
What is the general form of a straight line equation perpendicular to 4x plus 3y minus 5 equals 0 passing through a point minus 2 and minus 3 on the line?
Equation of original line is 4x + 3y - 5 = 0 that is, 3y = -4x + 5 or y = -(4/3)x + 5 Slope of original line = -4/3 Slope of line perpendicular to it = 3/4 General equation of perpendicular line: y = (3/4)x + c for some constant c or 4y = 3x + c' The point (-2,-3) is on this line so 4*(-3) = 3*(-2) + c' -12 = - 6 + c' so that c' = -6 The equation of the perpendicular line is 4y = 3x - 6
Which line is perpendicular to x-3 and goes through the point (0-4)?
To find the line perpendicular to (x - 3), we first note that (x - 3) represents a vertical line, so a line perpendicular to it would be horizontal. The equation of a horizontal line that passes through the point ((0, -4)) is (y = -4). Thus, the line perpendicular to (x - 3) and passing through ((0, -4)) is (y = -4).
What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line and passes through the point (6 2) A. y -2x plus 14 B. y -2x - 2 C. D.?
To determine the equation of a line that is perpendicular to another line and passes through the point (6, 2), we first need the slope of the original line. If the slope of the original line is ( m ), the slope of the perpendicular line will be ( -\frac{1}{m} ). Without the specific line's equation, we can't compute the exact perpendicular line. However, if you have options like A, B, etc., you can find the correct one by substituting the point (6, 2) into each equation to see which one satisfies it.
How do you write the equation of the line perpendicular to the line x equals 6 and passing through the point -4 5?
The line "x = 6" will be perpendicular to any line "y = C", where C is any constant. That means that the line which is perpendicular to "x=6" and passes through [-4, 5] will be "y = 5"
What is perpendicular to the line 3x plus y equals 2?
If a line has equation y = mx + c, the perpendicular line has gradient -1/m A line perpendicular to 3x + y = 2 has equation 3y = x + c; the value for c will be determined by a point through which the line must pass.
What is a line perpendicular to a line segmentt and passing through its midpoint?
There is no name for it except "A line perpendicular to a line segment and passing through its midpoint".
What is the perpendicular postulate?
The perpendicular postulate states that if there is a line, as well as a point that is not on the line, then there is exactly one line through the point that is perpendicular to the given line.
What is a perpendicular bisector of a line segment?
The perpendicular bisector of a line segment AB is the straight line perpendicular to AB through the midpoint of AB.
What are the difference between perpendicular lines and a perpendicular bisector?
A perpendicular bisector goes through the median of the line while a perpendicular line can be anywhere on the line as long as it is at a 90 degree angle.
Is a perpendicular bisector a type of concurrent line?
A perpendicular bisector is a line that cuts through another line at 90 degrees
What is the shortest path between a line and a point not on that line?
The shortest path is a line perpendicular to the given line that passes through the given point.
The distance from a point C to the line AB is the length of the segment from C to AB?
That is correct. The distance from a point C to a line AB is the length of the perpendicular segment drawn from point C to line AB. This forms a right angle, creating a right triangle with the segment as the hypotenuse. The length of this perpendicular segment is the shortest distance from the point to the line.
What are perpendicular bisectors?
A line that is perpendicular to the segment of a plane and passes through the midpoint.
What is the general form of a straight line equation perpendicular to 4x plus 3y minus 5 equals 0 passing through a point minus 2 and minus 3 on the line?
Equation of original line is 4x + 3y - 5 = 0 that is, 3y = -4x + 5 or y = -(4/3)x + 5 Slope of original line = -4/3 Slope of line perpendicular to it = 3/4 General equation of perpendicular line: y = (3/4)x + c for some constant c or 4y = 3x + c' The point (-2,-3) is on this line so 4*(-3) = 3*(-2) + c' -12 = - 6 + c' so that c' = -6 The equation of the perpendicular line is 4y = 3x - 6
Lines c and d are perpendicular. If the slope of line c is -4, what is the slope of line d?
1/4
