Answer:
- (8, -8)
- 100 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a rectangle have the same midpoint, so for points A, B, C, D, we must have ...
(A+C)/2 = (B+D)/2
D = A + C - B
D = (-2, -8) +(8, 2) -(-2, 2) = (-2+8+2, -8+2-2)
D = (8, -8)
__
The side lengths are 2-(-8) = 10, and 8-(-2) = 10. The area is the product of the side lengths, so is 10×10 = 100 square units.

<em>Comment on side lengths</em>
When the end points of one side are on the same vertical line, the length of that side is the difference of y-coordinates. When the points lie on the same horizontal line, the side length is the difference of x-coordinates.
Answer:
- x = -1/2(1 +√21) ≈ -2.79129
- x = -1/2(1 -√21) ≈ 1.79129
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the middle term is supposed to be 4x.
We can remove a common factor of 4 to simplify this a bit.
x^2 +x -5 = 0
This is of the form
ax^2 +bx +c = 0
where a=1, b=1, c=-5.
__
The <em>quadratic formula</em> gives the solutions as ...
Filling in the given coefficients, we have ...
x = (-1 ±√(1^2 -4·1·(-5)))/(2·1)
x = (-1±√21)/2
The solutions are x = -1/2(1 +√21) and -1/2(1 -√21).
_____
<em>If what you wrote is what you intend</em>, then the equation simplifies to 4x^2 -16 = 0.
Dividing by 4 and factoring the difference of squares gives ...
x^2 -4 = 0
(x -2)(x +2) = 0
These factors are zero (hence their product is 0) for the values x = 2 and x = -2.
The solutions are x=2 and x=-2.
