Question

Isosceles triangle LMN is graphed with vertices L(0, 1), M(3, 5), and N(6,1). What is the slope of side LN?

Answer 1

you would have to do the change in y over the change in x
1. 1-1/6-0
2. 0/6 and any time you divide zero by a number the answer is zero.

Answer 2

0

Explanation:

Hello

to find the slope we must to know that the slope of a line is a number that measures its "steepness", usually denoted by the letter m. It is the change in y for a unit change in x along the line

`m=(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )\\`

Let

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }\\

L ⇒ P1 (0,1)

`x_(1)=0 \\y_(1)=1`

N⇒ P2(6,1)

`x_(2)=6 \\y_(2)=1`

`m=(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )\\\\m=(1-1 )/(6-0 )\\m=(0)/(6) \\m=0\\`

m=0

which means that the line LN is horizontal
