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.

<h3>Answer:  24a^4 + 36a^3 + 12a^2</h3>

Explanation:

The blue rectangle has area of 4a^2*6a^2 = 24a^4

The red rectangle has area 4a^2*9a = 36a^3

The green rectangle has area 4a^2*3 = 12a^2

The total area is 24a^4 + 36a^3 + 12a^2

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Height = 8 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The volume V = 209 cubic meters Diameter = 10 meters

Radius r = 5 metres

How tall is the shed? The question is looking for the height of the cone

Using the formula for volume of a cone.

V = 1/3πr^2h

Where π = 3.14

209 = 1/3 × 3.14 × 5^2 ×h

209 = 3.14/3 × 25h

209 = 78.5h/3

h = 7.99 meters

h = 8 meters

Therefore, the shed is 8 meters tall.
