Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the coordinates of the midpoints, add the x's and divide by 2 and add the y's and divide by 2.
The coordinates of D, the midpoint of AB, (1+3)/2 will be the x-coordinate and (4+0)/2 will be the y-coordinate.
D (2,2)
You could also see this on a graph, see image.
E, the midpoint of AC has the x-coordinate (1+-3)/2, which is -1 and y-coordinate (4+-2)/2 which is 1.
E is (-1,1)
Then we are able to calculate the slope of DE and BC.
To calculate slope, subtract the y's and put that on top of a fraction and subtract x's and put that on the bottom of a fraction. If the slopes are the same the segment are parallel.
Slope of DE:
(2-1)/(2--1)
= 1/3
Slope of BC:
(0--2)/(3--3)
=2/6
=1/3
The slopes of BC and DE are equal, so the segments are parallel.
(Alternatively, you could show that Triangle ABC and Triangle ADE are similar. Then find the segments parallel because corresponding angles are congruent.)

h=6
Step-by-step explanation:
since is an equation for a line which intersects with the curve
. The point of intersection, let's say
, should satisfy the two equations. As a result, the value of y in the second equation can be replaced with the value of y in the first equation as the following,
therefore, the latter equation can be rewritten in a quadratic equation form as the following,
= 0
if the line is tangent to the curve, it means that the line touches the curve at one point, therefore the discernment of the second order equation will be equal to zero for the famous quadratic equation solution.
where and
, as a result, the following equations can be deduced,
therefore, dividing both sides by 12
