If the legs have lengths a and b, and the hypotenuse is c units long, then without loss of generality, we can assume the vertices are (0, 0), (a, 0), and (0, b).

Hence, a and b are negative. 67. Q(a, b) is in the fourth quadrant, and since P and Q both have first coordinate a, PQ is perpendicular to the -ais. 68. Q( a, b) is in the second quadrant, and since P and Q both have second coordinate b, PQ is perpendicular to the y-ais. 69.

Note that the coefficients can be multiplied by any nonzero number, e.g., another answer would be 8+y Beginning with point-slope form: y + ( - ), so y m + so in point-slope form, +, y + ( + ), and therefore y y 0. Solve for y: y The slope of the given line is the same as the line we want: m - so y + - ( - ), and therefore,. The slope of the given line is - so the slope of the line, we seek is m Then y + ( - ), and. therefore y (a) y - -.
