Answer:

Area = 71.3 sq unit

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We will use properties of parallelogram to verify the given vertices.

Property: Have a pair of parallel opposite sides

Hence, vectors AB AD BD BC CD AC. A pair should be parallel:

vectors

AB = A - B = (1, 1 , 3) - ( 2 , -5 , 6 ) = (-1 , 6 , -3)

AD = A - D = (1, 1 , 3) - (3, 4 , -4) = (-2 , -3 , 7)

BC = B - C = (2 , -5 , 6) - (4, -2 , -1) = (-2 ,-3 , 7)

CD = C - D = (4, -2 , -1) - (3, 4 , -4) = (1 , -6 , 3)

Hence we can see  that AB //CD and AD // BC as their unit vector co-efficents are identical/scalar multiple of each other.

b)

Equation of line AB = (1,1,3) + t*(-1 , 6 , -3 )

Point E = (1-t , 1+6t , 3 -3t) ... denotes an position of point E on line AB.

Choose a point on line CD, lets suppose C = ( 4 , -2 , -1 )

Vector EC = ( 1-t , 1+6t , 3-3t ) - (4 , -2 , -1 ) = (-3 -t , 3 +6t , 4 -3t)

For EC to be perpendicular to AB then dot product of AB . EC = 0

Hence,

EC . AB = -1 * (-3-t) -2*(3+6t) -3*(4-3t) = 0

3 + t -6 -12t -12+9t = 0

-2t-3 = 0

t = -3/2

Vector EC = (-3 -t , 3 +6t , 4 -3t) = (-1.5 , -6 , 8.5)

Area = magnitude (AB) * magnitude (EC)

Area = sqrt ((-1)^2 + 6^2 + (-3)^2) * sqrt ((-1.5)^2 + 6^2 + (8.5)^2)

Area = sqrt (46) * sqrt (442) / 2

Area = 71.3 unit^2

F(x) = –x^2+ 6<br> Find f(-3)
Lynna [10]
So if f(-3), then x = -3.


Substitute.



y = -(-3)^2 + 6

= -(9) + 6

= -3

Gina ate 3/4 of an apple pie. greg ate 1/8 of the same pie. how much of the Apple pie was left?
miskamm [114]
There would be 1/8 of the pie left,
you have to add 3/4 and 1/8 to find the total eaten and then subtract it by 8/8 (the total) which would give you your answer.

Hope it helps

A note with a face value 4300 was discounted at 3%. if discount was 21 dollars. find the length of loan in days
Doss [256]
The annual discount is 3%, therefore the total discount for 1 year would be:

4300 × 3 ÷ 100 = 129$

Now, you can set a proportion:

discount : annual discount = loan days : days in one year
21 : 129 = x : 360
 
x = 21 × 360 / 129 = 58.6 days

Hence, the loan duration was 60 days.
