In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis)
Answer:
The correct option is 4.
4) Doing two distance formulas to show that adjacent sides are not the same length.
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallelogram is a quadrilateral which has opposite sides equals and parallel. Example of a parallelogram are rhombus, rectangle, square etc.
We can prove that a quadrilateral MNOP is a parallelogram. If we find the slopes of all four sides and compare those of the opposite ends, same slopes would indicate the opposite sides are parallel, hence the quarilateral is a parallelogram. We can also find the distance of two opposing sides, and slopes of twp opposing sides to determine whether it is a parallelogram or not. The most difficult approach is that diagonals bisect each other at same point.
However, using only two distance formulas will not give us enough information to determine whether a side is parallel or not.
Answer: The slope is 15/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
M = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
M = (5 - (-10))/(-1 - (-5))
M = (5 + 10)/(-1 + 5)
M = 15/4
200-144=56
56/2=28
