Answer:

[tex]y = -x+8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The side that is parallel to BC is EF

Find the slope of EF:

[tex]m = \frac{2-4}{6-4} =\frac{-2}{-2} =-1[/tex]

Easiest way is just put the formula in point-slope form and simplify.

Let's use point F, which is (6,2)

[tex]y -2=-(x-6)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]y-2=-x+6[/tex]

Add 2 on both sides:

[tex]y = -x+8[/tex]
