Jason is trying to prove that this quadrilateral is a rhombus. Using the slope formula, he finds that opposite sides of the poly

gon are parallel. Since all of the sides appear to be congruent, Jason concludes that ABCD is a rhombus. Is Jason's reasoning correct? Why or why not

Answer:

No, it is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proving the opposite sides are parallel is the correct first step.  If the quadrilateral is not a parallelogram, it cannot be a rhombus.

After knowing the quadrilateral is a parallelogram, we must know whether the sides are congruent.  To do this, we must use the distance formula to find the length of each side.

Opposite sides being parallel proves that hte figure is a parallelogram.  The sides only appear to be equal so his conclusion is not valid. He would need to show that  2 adjacent sides of the parallelogram are equal ( using the distance formula)  to prove that it is a rhombus.

Answer:

\huge{ \fbox{ \sf{82}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\star{ \text{ \: x - 81 = 1}}

\text{Step \: 1 \:  : Move \: 81 \: to \: right \: hand \: side \: and \: change \: it's \: sign}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{x = 1 + 81}}

\text{Step \: 2 \:  : Add \: the \: numbers : 1 \: and \: 81}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{x = 82}}

The value of x is 82

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Given two points: A(x₁,y₁) and B(x₂,y₂), the slope of the line that passes through these points will be:
m=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

If we take two points of this line (3,0) and (3,1) and calculate the slope, we have:
m=(1-0)(0/0)=1/0  (any number divided by zero gives an indetermined value).

Therfore the slope is undefined.

Answer: D The slope is undefined.
