Identify the polygon with vertices A(5,0), B(2,4), C(−2,1), and D(1,−3), and then find the perimeter and area of the polygon. HE

inn [45]

Answer:

Part 1) The polygon is a square

Part 2) The perimeter is equal to $20\ units$

Part 3) The area is equal to $25\ units^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$A(5,0), B(2,4), C(-2,1),D(1,-3)$

Plot the points

see the attached figure

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

Find the distance AB

$A(5,0),B(2,4)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(4-0)^{2}+(2-5)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(-3)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$AB=5\ units$

Find the distance BC

$B(2,4), C(-2,1)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(1-4)^{2}+(-2-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$BC=5\ units$

Find the distance CD

$C(-2,1),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-1)^{2}+(1+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-4)^{2}+(3)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$CD=5\ units$

Find the distance AD

$A(5,0),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-0)^{2}+(1-5)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$AD=5\ units$

we have that

AB=BC=CD=AD

Find the distance BD (diagonal)

$B(2,4),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-4)^{2}+(1-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-7)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$BD=\sqrt{50}\ units$

Verify if the polygon is a square

If the triangle BDA is a right triangle, then the polygon is a square

Applying the Pythagoras theorem

$BD^{2}=AD^{2}+AB^{2}$

substitute

$(\sqrt{50})^{2}=5^{2}+5^{2}$

$50=50$ -----> is true

so

The triangle BDA is a right triangle

therefore

The polygon is a square

Find the Area of the polygon

The area of a square is equal to

$A=b^{2}$

we have

$b=5\ units$

$A=5^{2}=25\ units^{2}$

Find the perimeter of the polygon

The perimeter of a square is equal to

$P=4b$

we have

$b=5\ units$

$P=4(5)=20\ units$

Solve the system by graphing or using a table. 2x+4y=12 x+y=2

Molodets [167]

Answer: x = -2 and y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given a system of equations

2x + 4y =12 ...........(1)

and

x + y = 2 .............(2)

Now to plot them in graph we need to find the points of the above linear equations .

From equation 1 ,we get

$4y=12-2x\\\Rightarrow\ y=\frac{12-2x}{4}\\ \Rightarrow\ y=3-\frac{x}{2}\\\text{Put x=0, then} \\y=3-\frac{0}{2}=3\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Put x=6}\\y=3-\frac{6}{2} =3-3=0$

So get the points (0,3) and (6,0).

From equation 2 ,we get

$y=2-x\\\text{Put x=0}\\y=2-0=2\\\text{Put x=2}\\y=2-2=0$

So we get the points (0,2) and (2,0).

So after plotting these points we get two lines intersecting at (-2,4).

Therefore our solution is x=-2 and y= 4.

Can you draw trapezoid three right angles

Hunter-Best [27]

Its impossible to draw a trapezoid with just three right angles.

a trapezoid has 4 sides, which means all the angles inside the trapezoid must add up to 360 degrees.

if you have just 3 right angles (90x3), you already use up 270 degrees. Leaving you with just 90 degrees left, which is also a right angle. That means, there has to be four, if you have at least 3.

Can I get help with these three please?

Black_prince [1.1K]

1) x=
square root ({15}^{2} - {9}^{2} )
all the others are the same method, just remember
the horizontal line^2 + the vertical line ^2 is equals to the line opposite the right angle^2

X + 2x^2 + 3x^4 - x^5 by 2x

Sloan [31]

Answer:

-x^5 + 3x^4 + 2x^2 + x divided by 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

divide each term by 2x and you will get -x^4/2 + 3x^3/2 + x + 1/2
