How do you prove each identity?

There is a line with slope 1/a going through the point (a, a²). find the equation of the line perpendicular to this line at this point. (don’t let this problem intimidate you! solve the problem as you would if i’d given you specific values. just use variables instead.)

Which term best describes the association between variables a and b

Cot(90° − x) = 1 the value of x that satisfies this equation is °. a. 60 b. 135 c. 225 d. 315
