Answer:

perimeter = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of a polygon with the following vertices at; (3,2),(3,9),(7,12),(11,9), and (11,2), we will need to find the distance around the polygon.

Let A,B,C,D,E be the vertices of the polygon.

That is A(3,2), B(3,9), C(7,12), D(11,9), and E(11,2)

Then we will find the distance AB, BC, CD, DE and EA.

So to do this, we will simply apply our distance formula;

d =  √ (x_{2}  -  x_{1})²  +  ( y_{2} -  y_{1})²

We can now proceed;

A(3,2)        B(3,9)

|AB| =  √ (x_{2}  -  x_{1})²  +  ( y_{2} -  y_{1})²

        =√(3-3)²  +  (9-2)²

           =√0²  +  7²

             =√7²

              =√49

              =7

|AB|  = 7

Then,  B(3,9)      C(7,12)

|BC| =  √ (x_{2}  -  x_{1})²  +  ( y_{2} -  y_{1})²

         = √(7-3)²   +  (12-9)²

         =√4² +  3²

           =√16 +9

            =√25

              =5

|BC| =5

Then,  C(7,12)       D(11,9)

|CD| =  √ (x_{2}  -  x_{1})²  +  ( y_{2} -  y_{1})²

        =√(11-7)²  +  (9-12)²

        =√4² +  3²

         =√16 + 9

         =√25

          =5

|CD|  = 5

Then,  D(11,9)      E(11,2)

|DE| =  √ (x_{2}  -  x_{1})²  +  ( y_{2} -  y_{1})²

        =√(11-11)²  + (2-9)²

         =√0² + 7²

          =√49

           =7

  |DE|=7

Then, E(11,2)     A(3,2)

|EA| =  √ (x_{2}  -  x_{1})²  +  ( y_{2} -  y_{1})²

       =√(3-11)²  -  (2-2)²

        =√(-8)²  +  0²

          =√64

            =8

|EA| = 8

Perimeter = |AB| +|BC|  + |CD|  + |DE|  + |EA|

                  =7 + 5 + 5 + 7 + 8

                   =32

Therefore, the perimeter of the polygon is 32

How many numbers greater than zero and less than 50 equal the product of two consecutive positive integers?
spin [16.1K]
Consecutive numbers would be like 2 and 3, or 7 and 8.

All we need to do is keep multiplying pairs of consecutive numbers until we get above 50.

1 × 2 = 2 (that's one.)
2 × 3 = 6 (two)
3 × 4 = 12 (three)
4 × 5 = 20 (four)
5 × 6 = 30 (five)
6 × 7 = 42 (six...)
<em>7 × 8 = 56 > 50</em>
We have a total of 6 numbers that equal the product of 2 consecutive intergers<em>

M∠GHI = 3x° and m∠LMN = 17x°. If ∠GHI and ∠LMN are supplementary, find the measure of each angle.
Savatey [412]
If they are supplementary then 3x + 17x = 180

20x = 180

x = 9     
m<GHI = 27 degrees
m < LMN = 153 degrees

A(x+1)(x-1)+b(x-2)(x+1)+(x+1)^2=9x-x-10 What is a+b?
igor_vitrenko [27]

a(x+1)(x-1)+b(x-2)(x+1)+(x+1)^2=9x^2-x-10

(x+1)(a(x-1)+b(x-2)+(x+1))=(x+1)(9x-10)

a(x-1)+b(x-2)+x+1=9x-10

Now this equation is much simpler!

(a+b)x-a-2b+x+1=9x-10

(a+b)x-a-2b=8x-11

(a+b-8)x-a-2b-11=0

a+b-8=(a+2b-11)/x

I can't solve it 3 variables and 1 equations means infinite answers so yea.
