Consider triangle ABC ~ triangle XYZ. What is the value of tan(a)? a. 3/4 b. 3/5

y = x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This line passes through (-1, 0) and (0, 1)  As we move from the first point to the second, x increases by 1 and y also increases by 1.  Therefore, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 1 / 1, or m = 1.

Start with the general equation of a line y = mx + b.  Substitute 1 for m and 1 for b.  Then the equation of the line shown is:

y = x + 1
