Answer:

16 yd.  This is the park's actual length.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

1 1/4 cm     8 yd

------------ = -----------

2 1/2 cm        x

Note that 2(1 1/4 cm) = 2 1/2 cm, so the above equation becomes:

 1       8 yd

----- = ---------

  2         x

Solving for x, we get x = 16 yd.  This is the park's actual length.

Prove that the quadrilateral whose vertices are I(-2,3), J(2,6), K(7,6), and L(3, 3) is a rhombus.

I think in these problems the first step is to express each side as a vector.  A vector is the difference between points.  When two sides have the same vector (or negatives) it means they're parallel and congruent.  So in a rhombus IJKL the vectors IJ and LK should be the same, as should JK and IL.  That much assures a parallelogram; we check IJ and JK are congruent to complete the crowing of the rhombus.

Let's calculate these vectors:

IJ = J - I = (2,6) - (-2,3) = (2 - -2, 6 - 3) = (4, 3)

LK = K - L = (7, 6) - (3, 3) = (4, 3)

IJ = LK, so far so good

(Note: If you haven't got to vectors yet you can just show the two sides are the same length, 5, and have the same slope, 3/4, both of which can be read off the vectors.)

JK = K - J = (7,6) - (2,6) = (5,0)

IL = L - I = (3, 3) - (-2, 3)  = (5, 0)

Those are the same too.    

Now we have to show IJ ≅ JK

The length of IJ is the cliche √4²+3² = 5, the same as JK, so IJ ≅ JK

We showed all four sides are congruent and we have two pair of parallel sides, so we have a rhombus.

For this case we have that by definition, the circumference of a circle is given by:

C = \pi * d

Where:

d: It is the diameter of the circle

They tell us that:

d = \frac {35} {2}\\\pi = \frac {22} {7}

Substituting:

C = \frac {22} {7} * \frac {35} {2}\\C = \frac {770} {14}\\C = 55 \ cm

Thus, the circumference of the circle is 55 centimeters.
