Answer:

The quadrilateral ABCD is a rhombus.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus is a quadrilateral having equal sides.

If ABCD is a rhombus then,

AB = BC = CD =  DA

It is provided that the coordinates of the rhombus ABCD are:

A = (-1, -5)

B = (8, 2)

C = (11, 13)

D = (2, 6)

Use the distance formula to compute the lengths of AB, BC, CD and DA.

The distance formula is:

d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

Compute the length of AB:

AB=\sqrt{(8-(-1))^{2}+(2-(-5))^{2}}=\sqrt{130}=11.4

Compute the length of BC:

BC=\sqrt{(11-8)^{2}+(13-2)^{2}}=\sqrt{130}=11.4

Compute the length of CD:

CD=\sqrt{(2-11)^{2}+(6-13)^{2}}=\sqrt{130}=11.4

Compute the length of DA:

DA=\sqrt{(2-(-1))^{2}+(6-(-5))^{2}}=\sqrt{130}=11.4

Thus, the lengths AB, BC, CD and DA are equal, i.e. all sides are of length 11.4.

Hence proved that the quadrilateral ABCD is a rhombus.

The contrapositive of p q is:
Kay [80]
Some symbols are missing. I'm assuming you meant to put in a horseshoe symbol like so p \supset q

If so, then the contrapositive of that would be \sim q \supset \ \sim p which is the final answer. 

The tilde sign \sim means "not" so writing \sim q means "not q" which is the complete opposite of q.

kobusy [5.1K]
N-2= 1/16
⇒ n= 1/16+ 2 (inverse operation)
⇒ n= 2+ 1/16
⇒ n= 2 1/16

Final answer: n= 2 1/16.
