Respuesta :
The slope of the line AD will be 3. Then the correct option is B.
What is the slope?
The slope is the ratio of rising or falling and running. The difference between the ordinate is called rise or fall and the difference between the abscissa is called run.
This is a diagram of triangle ABC.
Point A is located at (-2,4). Point B is located at (-6,2). Point C is located at (3,-1).
Point D is located on line BC, in between point B and point C.
The line AD is perpendicular to the line BC.
The slope of the line BC will be
m₁ = (-1 - 2) / (3 + 6)
m₁ = -1/3
We know that product of the slope of the perpendicular line will be negative 1.
m₁ x m₂ = -1
-1/3 x m₂ = -1
m₂ = 3
Then the slope of the line AD will be 3.
Then the correct option is B.
