What are the slopes of perpendicular lines called?
Slopes of line perpendicular to the x-axis are undefined.
Which axis of a hyperbola is perpendicular to the conjugate axis?
The transverse axis is perpendicular to the conjugate axis.
What is the relation between the x axis and the y axis?
They are perpendicular and intersect at a reference point called the origin.
Which plane is Perpendicular to the longitudinal axis?
The transverse plane is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
What is a fracture across the longitudinal axis?
Transverse Fracture
Fracture that cut across the bone at right angles to its long axis is called?
transverse
Which axis of a hyperbola is perpendicular to the transverse axis?
the conjugate axis
Can a vertical line be perpendicular to the x-axis?
Yes because the y axis is perpendicular to the x axis at the origin which is (0, 0)
Which is the name for a broken bone?
A broken bone is often called a "fracture" or "bone fracture". Some examples from the Wikipedia entry on bone fracture. * Complete Fracture- A fracture in which bone fragments separate completely. * Incomplete Fracture- A fracture in which the bone fragments are still partially joined. * Linear Fracture- A fracture that is parallel to the bone's long axis. * Transverse Fracture- A fracture that is at a right angle to the bone's long axis. * Oblique Fracture- A fracture that is diagonal to a bone's long axis. * Compression Fracture-A fracture that usually occurs in the vertebrae. * Spiral Fracture- A fracture where at least one part of the bone has been twisted. * Comminuted Fracture- A fracture causing many fragments. * Compacted Fracture- A fracture caused when bone fragments are driven into each other * Open Fracture- A fracture when the bone reaches the skin * Bug fracture- A fracture when the bone is in place, but the fracture has the appearance of a crushed insect.
What are 2 perpendicular number lines in a system coordinate called?
They are the horizontal x axis and the vertical y axis that are perpendicular to each other on the Cartesian plane whereas the point of origin is at (0, 0)
What is a definition for coordinate graph?
A coordinate graph has two perpendicular lines, or axes, labeled with number and called number lines. The horizontal axis is called the x-axis. The vertical axis is called the y-axis. The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect is called the origin. I'm doing this in school now!
What is the perpendicular bisector of transverse axis?
It is the conjugate axis or the minor axis.
