Students in Ms. Bell’s geometry class created posters of geometric definitions. Which of the following is the most precise definition? A. Parallel lines are lines that do not intersect.

B. A line segment is part of a line that has an endpoint.

C. Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right angle.

D. An angle is formed by two lines, two segments or two rays in one plane.

x^2 + 81

we can factor this using difference of square binomials.

rewrite the equation:

x^2 - (-81)

factor:

(a^2 - b^2) = (√a^2 + √b^2)(√a^2 - √b^2)

(x^2 - (-81) = (x + √-81)(x - √-81)

we can remove the - from under the radical by multiplying it by i.

(x^2 - (-81) = (x + i√81)(x - i√81)

(x^2 - (-81) = (x + 9i)(x - 9i)

we can check our answer by using foil:

x^2 - 9ix + 9ix - 81i^2

x^2 - 81^2

i^2 = -1

x^2 + 81
