Is the line through points P(-8,-10) and Q(-5,-12) perpendicular to the line through points R(9,-6) and S(17,-5)? Explain.

1 answer:

5 0

Consider this option:
1. rule: if the scalar product PQ*RS=0, then PQ⊥RS.
2. PQ=(3;-2), RS=(8;1).
3. The scalar product of PQ*RS=3*8-1*2=22≠0. The line included PQ is not perpendicular to the line included RS.

Which products result in a difference of squares or a perfect square trinomial? Check all that apply.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Option B) (7x+4)(7x+4) is correct

The product result in a perfect square trinomial is

$(7x+4)(7x+4)=49x^2+56x+14$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(7x+4)(7x+4)=(7x+4)^2$ ( using $(a+b)(a+b)=(a+b)^2$ )

$=(7x)^2+2(7x)(4)+4^2$ ( using $(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$ )

$=7^2x^2+56x+16$

$=49x^2+56x+14$

Therefore $(7x+4)(7x+4)=49x^2+56x+14$

which is a perfect square trinomial

A trinomial is a perfect square trinomial if it can be factored into a binomial multiplied to itself. In a perfect square trinomial, two terms will be perfect squares.

Option B) (7x+4)(7x+4) is correct

The product result in a perfect square trinomial is

$(7x+4)(7x+4)=49x^2+56x+14$
