Question

On a coordinate plane, parallelogram A B C D has points (3, 6), (6, 5), (5, 1), and (2, 2).

Answer 1

Answer:

13 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the distance between the points using the  

Pythagorean Theorem, a² + b² = c²

(3,6) and (6,5); 6 - 3 = 3 and 6 - 5 = 1

3² + 1² = c²

9 + 1 = c²

c = √10

(6,5) and (5,1); 6 - 5 = 1 and 5 - 1 = 4

1² + 4² = c²

1 + 16 = c²

c = √17

√17 + √10 = 13.038
