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

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

-10h+8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's open the brackets:

-6h-13+21-4h (two -'s make a +)

This is equal to -10h + 8

Evaluate x^-2 for x = -3.
Hitman42 [59]

Hey there!

If x = -3 then replace "x" with -3

New equation: -3^-2

(-1 × 3)^-2

(-1 / 3 )× 3

3 × 3 = 3^3 = 9 (Solving for your denominator)

(-1/3)^2

= (1/9)

This your answer is: 1/9

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Solving linear equations
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

(x, y ) = ( \frac{1}{2}, \frac{5}{2})

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

4x + 2y = 7 → (1)

y = 5x → (2)

Substitute y = 5x into equation (1)

4x + 2(5x) = 7

4x + 10x = 7

14x = 7 ( divide both sides by 14 )

x = \frac{7}{14} = \frac{1}{2}

substitute this value into equation (2)

y = 5 × \frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{2}
