Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

During the breaststroke competitions of a recent olympics, Nelson diebel swam 100 meters in 62 seconds, this means that his unit rate would be 100/62 = 1.61 meters per second.

Mike bower man swam 200 meters in 130 seconds. This means that his unit rate would be 200/130 = 1.54 meters per second. The rate of 1.61 meters per second is higher than the rate of 1.54 meters per second. Therefore, Nelson diebel swam at a faster rate.

Let

A(0,0)\\ B (2.8, 2.1)\\C(4.3, 4.4)

using a graph tool

see the attached figure

The figure is a triangle

we know that

<u>The Heron's Formula</u> is a method for calculating the area of a triangle when you know the lengths of all three sides.

Hero's Formula is equal to

Area=\sqrt{p*(p-a)*(p-b)*(p-c)}

where

p is  is half the perimeter of the triangle

 a,b,c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle

so

Step 1

<u>Find the length sides of the triangle</u>

a) <u>Find the distance AB</u>

d =\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2} +(x2-x1)^{2}}

Substitute

d =\sqrt{(2.1-0)^{2} +(2.8-0)^{2}}

d =3.5\ mi}

b) <u>Find the distance AC</u>

d =\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2} +(x2-x1)^{2}}

Substitute

d =\sqrt{(4.4-0)^{2} +(4.3-0)^{2}}

d =6.15\ mi}

c) <u>Find the distance BC</u>

d =\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2} +(x2-x1)^{2}}

Substitute

d =\sqrt{(4.4-2.1)^{2} +(4.3-2.8)^{2}}

d =2.75\ mi}

Step 2

<u>Find the perimeter of the triangle</u>

Perimeter= 3.5+6.15+2.75 =12.4\ mi

<u>Find the half of the perimeter </u>

p=\frac{12.4}{2} = 6.2\ mi

Step 3

<u>Find the area of the triangle</u>

Area=\sqrt{6.2*(6.2-3.5)*(6.2-6.15)*(6.2-2.75)}

Area=\sqrt{6.2*(2.7)*(0.05)*(3.45)}

Area= 1.69\ mi^{2}

therefore

<u>the answer is the option </u>

a) 1.65 mi^2.

Parallelogram ABCD has the angle measures shown. Can you conclude that it is a rhombus, a rectangle, or a square? Explain.
Nikitich [7]
<span>We can analyze the four optons. 1) Option A. A parallelogram with all four angles of the same measure can be either a square or a rectangle, then this option is not valid. 2) Optrion B. gives not information. 3) A rhombus (a diamond) is a parallelogram with four congruent side (square is a specific case of rhmbus but not all rhombus are squares), and it is enouh to say that one diagonal bisects two interior angles, to conclude that it is a rhombus. 4) If a diagonal creates congruent angles, but you do not know what happens with the opposed angle, you cannot conclude that the parallelogram is a rectangle; it could be a trapezoid with one side perpendicular to the parallel sides. By t his analysis, the answer is option C.</span>
