Answer:

No. The sum of 2 and 4 is less than 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first, to create a triangle, the sum of two smallest sides have to be greater than the longest side, which is 2+4 = 6, and 6 is smaller than 7.

So, no, 2, 4, and 7 cannot create a triangle, to be exact a right triangle.

Hope this helps!!

two verticies of paralellogram ABCD are A(-6,-1) and B(-5,3). The intersection of the diagonals, E, are (-2, 1/2). Determine the

Answer:

D(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a parallelogram gram bisects each other.

Therefore E is the midpoint of AD.

Let the coordinates of D be (a,b).

By the midpoint rule:

$( \frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}) = ( - 2, \frac{1}{2} )$

This implies that:

$( \frac{ - 6+a}{2} ,\frac{ - 1+b}{2}) = ( - 2, \frac{1}{2} )$

This implies that:

$( \frac{ - 6+a}{2} = - 2 ,\frac{ - 1+b}{2} = \frac{1}{2} )$

$( - 6+a =- 4 , - 1+b = 1 ) \\ ( a =- 4 + 6 , b = 1 + 1 ) \\ ( a =2 , b =2 )$
