what are the coordinates of the point on the line 6x − 5y=8 that is closest to the origin?

Step-by-step explanation:

The closest point to the given line must be on a line perpendicular to it.

So we start by finding the slope of the given line and then evaluating what the slope of the perpendicular line to it must be.

First write the given line in slope_y-intercept form:

SO solve for y in :

Since the slope is 6/5, the slope of a perpendicular line to the given one must be the "opposite of the reciprocal": -5/6

So the line that we are looking for must have the form:

Since we want it to go through the origin of coordinates (0,0) because we are finding the point closer to the origin, the y-intercept b must be zero:

Now, to find the point of intersection of both lines (the given one and the perpendicular one through the origin) we equal both expressions:

and solve this equation for "x":

Therefore

Now to find the y-value of the point on the line, we replace this x in either line equation:

Then the closest point is:

∠lno ≅ ∠lnm

∠oln ≅ ∠mln

step-by-step explanation:

given   that triangle lno is congruent to triangle lnm.

we have to fill up the blanks in the given question.

according to above order of congruency   kept in mind we can say that

∠lno ≅ ∠lnm

∠oln ≅ ∠mln

ln ≅ ln due to common in both.

hence, by sas congruency,

the side angle side rule   states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.
