x = y + 4 is already done so we will substitute that into the other equation!

3(y + 4) + y = 16

Distribute.

3y + 12 + y = 16

Add the terms.

4y + 12 = 16

Give y its own side.

4y = 4

Divide by 4.

y = 1

Substitute this back into one of the equations.

x = 1 + 4

x = 5

The point for these 2 equations is (5, 1)

Prove that the following four points will form a rectangle when connected in order

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diagonals of the rectangle are congruent,

AC = BD

By using formula to calculate the distance between two points,

Distance between two points = $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Distance between A(0, -3) and C(2, 8),

AC = $\sqrt{(8+3)^2+(2-0)^2}$

= $\sqrt{125}$

= $5\sqrt{5}$

Similarly, distance between two points B(-4, 0) and D(6, 5),

BD = $\sqrt{(5-0)^2+(6+4)^2}$

= $\sqrt{125}$

= $5\sqrt{5}$

Therefore, both the diagonals are congruent.

Hence, given quadrilateral ABCD is a rectangle.
