1. Consider the parallelogram ABCD drawn in the 1. figure attached.

2. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, so AM=MC and BM=MD


3. In triangle ABC, BM is an altitude (BM perpendicular to AC), but also a median (AM=MC). An altitude is also a median only when the triangle is isosceles, so AB=BC 

similarly, in triangle BCD, CM is both an altitude and a median.Thus, BCD is an isosceles triangle so BC=CD.

4. AB= DC (opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal), similarly BC=DA

5. So ABCD is a quadrilateral, with all 4 sides equal in length. Thus ABCD is a rhombus.

Art [367]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, do you mean what is the final charge? If so, then look at my next steps

If you mean the final charge then first multiply 10% by 360 , basically 10/100 multiplied by $360 which is equals to $36. Since it is interest, add $36 to $360. The answer will be $396. Then you add on the $19 which would bring the total to $415.

Hehe I am no expert but this is what I did . Tried my best

Answer:

  • x = - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>In order to find the vertical asymptotes make the denominator equal to zero and solve:</u>

  • 2x + 18 = 0
  • 2x = - 18
  • x = - 9

There is one vertical asymptote since the denominator is linear expression
