170 is the answer to the question
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
The <em>correct answer</em> is:
The diagonals of the parallelogram are congruent.
Explanation:
In every parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent. This would not mean it is a rectangle.
Consecutive sides of a parallelogram are only congruent if the parallelogram is a rhombus or a square; this would not be a rectangle.
The diagonals of every parallelogram bisect each other. This would not mean it is a rectangle.
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other. If we know this is true about our parallelogram, this means our parallelogram is a rectangle.
Y=-3x+4
Gradient, m= -3
Parallel lines have equal gradients;
So, equation II,
y=mx+c
y=-3x+c
Replacing for x and y using point (-4, 6)
6=-3(-4)+c
6=12+c
6-12=c
c=-6
y=-3x-6
