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. ∠M is a right angle and MK bisects ∠LMJ.

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

B. LM = JM = 3 and JK = LK = √17.

this makes the quadrilateral a kite.

C. MK intersects LJ at its midpoint

if they are not perpendicular, the quadrilateral is not a kite.

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:

Step-by-step explanation:

160miles • 330miles= 52,800square miles

Now it wants the population density in people per square miles, so you need to divide the population by the number of square miles.

Answer: 5.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

$x^{3} = 160$

To find x , we will find the cube root of both sides , that is

$x = \sqrt[3]{160}$

$x = 5.428835233$

$x$ ≈ 5.43

The percentage of students who passed the first and the second quiz is still 60%. The 80% that passed the first quiz should not be taken into account when determining the answer since the 60% is plainly given.
