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

Is 4,400 is 10 times as much as 440
vagabundo [1.1K]
To do question we have to multiply 10 and 440: ("x times as much" is x Multiplied by", so "twice as much as 4 is 8", or "3 times 4 is 12),

this is 4400 or 4,400 - this is true!

The shorter leg of a right triangle is 7cm shorter than the longer leg. The hypotenuse is 7cm longer then the linger leg. What i
Gelneren [198K]

The shorter leg is 21cm, longer leg is 28 cm and hypotenuse is 35cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

The longer leg = x

The shorter leg = x-7

Hypotenuse = x+7

Using Pythagoras theorem;

a^2+b^2=c^2\\(x-7)^2+(x)^2=(x+7)^2\\x^2-14x+49+x^2=x^2+14x+49\\2x^2-14x+49-x^2-14x-49=0\\x^2-28x=0\\x(x-28)=0\\

Either,

x= 0

Or,

x-28=0      =>x=28

As length cannot be zero, therefore,

Longer side = 28cm

Shorter side = x-7 = 28-7 = 21cm

Hypotenuse = x+7 = 28+7 = 35cm

The shorter leg is 21cm, longer leg is 28 cm and hypotenuse is 35cm.
