Distance from J to F = b
D from F to K = a
a^2+b^2=JK^2

D from K to G = a
D from G to L = b
a^2+b^2=KL^2

D from L to H = b
D from H to M = a
a^2+b^2=LM^2

D from M to E = a
D from E to J = b
a^2+b^2=MJ^2

For each side, I used the Pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) to find the length. Since every side of the quadrilateral squared (aka to the power of two) equals a^2+b^2, every side squared equals each other. So JK^2=KL^2=LM^2=MJ^2. If you take the square root of each side of the equal signs, you’re left with JK=KL=LM=MJ. In order for a quadrilateral to be a rhombus, each side must be equivalent. Each side in this quadrilateral is equivalent, therefore it is a rhombus.

What type of number has a decimal that does not repeat or end?
galina1969 [7]
A number that has a decimal that does not repeat or end in an irrational number.  The decimal goes on forever, without a pattern.  Think of it as it is irrational to keep going on and on and on.   Irrational numbers also cannot be put into fractions.
-5 is an integer, it is a whole (positive or negative without a decimal/fraction) number.  An integer can be any whole number as long as it is a whole number and does not have a decimal.<span />

2. Find the surface area of a cylindrical can of tennis balls if the height of the can is 8
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

125.7 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cylinder is the sum of the areas of the two circles on each end and the area encircling "rectangle". Note that the length of this "rectangle" is the height of the can, while the width is the perimeter of the circle. The full equation is:

A=2 \pi r^2 +2 \pi r h\\A=2 \pi r(r+h)\\A=2 \pi (2)(2+8)\\A=40 \pi\\A=125.7
