An apothem of a square is a perpendicular from a center of a square to one of its side.
<span>
</span><span>1. Put a dot at the center of the square. (You can find the center by drawing diagonals from corner to corner. The center is where they intersect).</span>

2. <span>Draw a perpendicular line in any of the four directions to one side of the square.</span><span />

3. <span>Two apothems of a square (drawn to opposite sides) make a line that is parallel to both (left) sides of the square, a line that is of equal length. If two apothems added together are equal to the length of one side, then one apothem is half of the length.</span>
<span /><span>
</span><span>4. The square perimeter is 40 and it consists of 4 equal parts, then the length of square's side is 10.
</span><span>
</span><span>5. Then the apothem has length 5.
</span>

The coordinate plane below represents a town. Points A through F are farms in the town.
Elena-2011 [213]
<span>To solve this, use the point - slope form formula
</span>Point D (-4, 2) and Point E (-1, 5)
<span>y - y1 = [(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)](x - x1)
y - 2 = [(5 - 2/-1 -(-4))](x + 4)
y - 2 = x + 4
y = x + 6

To answer this, input the values of points D or E into the equation and make sure that they answer the equation in part A.
</span>y = x + 6
2 = -4 + 6 = -2 so it satisfies the solution
