Using the picture:

Between (-3, -4) and (5, -4) is:
The difference is in the x units:  5 - (-3) = 5 + 3 = 8

Between (5, 2) and (5, -4) is:
The difference is in the y units:  2 - (-4) = 2 + 4 = 6

We know the shape is a right angled triangle:

By applying Pythagoras' Theorem:

let the hypotenuse be x:

x² = 6² + 8²

x² = 36 + 64

x² = 100

Take square root of both sides

√x²  = √100

x = 10

Distance between the 2 points = 10 units.

Cody's fence must have sides that are twice as long as the sides of his neigbore fence. His neigbors fence contains an area of 8
KatRina [158]

Answer: 59.58 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The area of the neighbor's fence is  A=887.5\ ft^2

Suppose the length of the fence is L and the shape of the fenced area is square

So, we can write

\Rightarrow L^2=887.5\\\Rightarrow L=\sqrt{887.5}=29.79\ ft

According to the question, Cody's fence length must be twice of neighbor's

The length of Cody's fence is =2L=2\times 29.79=59.58\ ft

Which statement proves that quadrilateral JKLM is a kite?
sesenic [268]
A quadrilateral is a kite if the diagonals are:

i) perpendicular
ii) bisect each other
iii) not equal ( together with conditions i and ii this would make the quadrilateral a square)


Another definition of the kite is :

a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of equal adjacent sides.


Let's check the choices one by one:

A. <span>∠M is a right angle and MK bisects ∠LMJ.

according to these, ML and MJ may well be not equal...


</span><span>B. LM = JM = 3 and JK = LK = √17.
</span>
this makes the quadrilateral a kite.


<span>C. MK intersects LJ at its midpoint
</span>
if they are not perpendicular, the quadrilateral is not a kite.


<span>D. The slope of MK is –1 and the slope of LJ is 1.

this only means that MK and LJ are perpendicular, but not whether they bisect each other,


Answer: only B</span>

Using the Law of Detachment if a polynomial is prime, then it cannot be factored. 5x+13y is prime.
frozen [14]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: <u>Law</u> <u>of</u> <u>deduction</u> is a mathematical logic that states the following:

1) If p happens, then q happens;

2) p is true;

Then, a there is a third statement that is

3) q is also true.

In this question,

If a polynomial is prime, then it cannot be factored.

Statement p is that 5x + 13y is a polynomial and is prime, i.e., p is true.

Statement q is that "it cannot be factored"

Therefore, 5x + 13y cannot be factored.
