The digram shows the final step of a construction. Insert the symbol that makes the statement true? The slope of PS .... the slope RQ

1 answer

To provide a proper response, I need more context regarding the construction shown in the digram, specifically the relationship or orientation between the lines PS and RQ. However, I can offer you some guidance based on common geometric principles.

  1. If line PS is parallel to line RQ, the statement would be: "The slope of PS is equal to the slope of RQ."
  2. If line PS is perpendicular to line RQ, the statement would be: "The slope of PS is the negative reciprocal of the slope of RQ."
  3. If line PS is steeper than line RQ, the statement would be: "The slope of PS is greater than the slope of RQ."
  4. If line PS is less steep than line RQ, the statement would be: "The slope of PS is less than the slope of RQ."

Please provide additional details or clarification on the construction and the orientation of the lines involved for a more specific answer.
