Answer:

The name of the polygon is rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets find the slope of the four sides and the length of two adjacent

 side to know what is the name of the figure

∵ The vertices are (1 , 3) , (3 , 4) , (5 , 0) , (3 , -1)

∵ The rule of the slope of a line which passes through the points

  (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

- Let (x1 , y1) is (1 , 3) and (x2 , y2) is (3 , 4)

∴ m1 = (4 - 3)/(3 - 1) = 1/2

- Let (x1 , y1) is (3 , 4) and (x2 , y2) is (5 , 0)

∴ m2 = (0 - 4)/(5 - 3) = -4/2 = -2

- Let (x1 , y1) is (5 , 0) and (x2 , y2) is (3 , -1)

∴ m3 = (-1 - 0)/(3 - 5) = -1/-2 = 1/2

- Let (x1 , y1) is (3 , -1) and (x2 , y2) is (1 , 3)

∴ m4 = (3 - -1)/(1 - 3) = 4/-2 = -2

- The parallel lines have equal slopes

- The product of the slopes of the perpendicular lines is -1

∵ m1 = m3 and m2 = m4

∴ The sides contains points (1 , 3) , (3 , 4) and (5 , 0) , (3 , -1) are parallel

  and the sides contain points (3 , 4) , (5 , 0) and (3 , -1) , (1 , 3) are

  parallel

∵ m1 × m2 = 1/2 × -2 = -1

∴ The side contains points (1 , 3) , (3 , 4) is ⊥ to the line contains points

  (3 , 4) , (5 , 0)

∵ m3 × m4 = 1/2 × -2 = -1

∴ The side contains points (5 , 0) , (3 , -1) is ⊥ to the line contains points

  (3 , -1) , (1 , 3)

- Now lets find the length of the four sides by using the rule

 of the distance

- If a segment has two endpoints (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2), then the length

 of the distance is √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

∵ The length of the side which contains points (1 , 3) and (3 , 4) is

 √[(3 - 1)² + (4 - 3)²] = √[4 + 1] = √5

∵ The length of the side which contains points (3 , 4) and (5 , 0) is

 √[(5 - 3)² + (0 - 4)²] = √[4 + 16] = √20 = 2√5

∵ The length of the side which contains points (5 , 0) and (3 , -1) is

 √[(3 - 5)² + (-1 - 0)²] = √[4 + 1] = √5

∵ The length of the side which contains points (3 , -1) and (1 , 3) is

 √[(1 - 3)² + (3 - -1)²] = √[4 + 16] = √20 = 2√5

∴ The four sides are not equal but each two opposite sides are equal

- From all above

# Each two opposite sides are parallel and equal

# Each two adjacent sides are perpendicular

∴ The name of the polygon is rectangle

Answer:

\boxed{x = 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

=> 5x-4+2(x-4) = 16

Expanding the brackets

=> 5x-4+2x-8 = 16

Combining like terms

=> 5x+2x-4-8 = 16

=> 7x - 12 = 16

Adding 12 to both sides

=> 7x = 16+12

=> 7x = 28

Dividing both sides by 7

=> x = 4

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

C. There are the same number of scores in Section and Section

Step-by-step explanation:

The median of section I is greater than the median of section L. Median is the middle value or midpoint in the data set. In the given quiz the data set has different numbers for every section and therefore the values are not same. The data set has 75% of scores in section il which is higher than the section L.
