Answer to Problem 31E
Paths of puck not form a right angled triangle. The claim made by the friend is not correct.
Explanation of Solution
Given information: A hockey puck leaves the blade of a hockey stick, bounce off a wall and travel in a new direction.
Calculation: As hockey puck starts from the point
slope of AB is:
slope of BC is:
slope of CA is:
Because not the product of any two slope is
Therefore they are not forming a right angled triangle.
Thus our friend is not correct.
Slope intercept form is
Put
Equation of the line in slope intercept form is:
Thus, the equation of the line in slope intercept form is
