Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the coordinates of a quadrilateral that is G(1,-1), H(5,1), I(4,3) and J(0,1).

Now, before proving that this quadrilateral is a rectangle, we will prove that it is a parallelogram. For this, we will prove that the mid points of the diagonals of the quadrilateral are  equal, thus

Join JH and GI such that they form the diagonals of the quadrilateral.Now,

JH=\sqrt{(5-0)^{2}+(1-1)^{2}}=5 and

GI=\sqrt{(4-1)^{2}+(3+1)^{2}}=5

Now, mid point of JH=(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})

=(\frac{5+0}{2},\frac{1+1}{2})=(\frac{5}{2},1)

Mid point of GI=(\frac{5}{2},1)

Since, mid point point of JH and GI are equal, thus GHIJ is a parallelogram.

Now, to prove that it is a rectangle, it is sufficient to prove that it has a right angle by using the Pythagoras theorem.

Thus, From ΔGIJ, we have

(GI)^{2}=(IJ)^{2}+(JG)^{2}                             (1)

Now, JI=\sqrt{(4-0)^{2}+(3-1)^{2}}=\sqrt{20} and GJ=\sqrt{(0-1)^{2}+(1+1)^{2}}=\sqrt{5}

Substituting these values in (1), we get

5^{2}=(\sqrt{20})^{2}+(\sqrt{5})^{2} }

25=20+5

25=25

Thus, GIJ is a right angles triangle.

Hence, GHIJ is a rectangle.

Also, The diagonals GI=\sqrt{(4-1)^{2}+(3+1)^{2}}=5  and HJ=\sqrt{(0-5)^2+(1-1)^2}=5 are equal, thus, GHIJ is a rectangle.

Simplify completely
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: x+2 / x+ 9, x = -2, x=-9   ( A )

Solution:

Breakdown the problem into two sets

Step 1:  simplify x^2 -10x - 24

Factorize the above equation,

Multiply the last term (24) with the first term coefficient i.e. 1

Step 2: Then, find the factors of 24 in a way that when you add or subtract it sums up to 10

x2 - 12x + 2x - 24  >>>>  (x2-12x) + (2x-24) >>> take common

>>>> x(x-12) + 2( x-12)

Step 3:   (x + 2)  (x - 12)

Step 4: Step 1:  simplify x^2 - 3x - 108 using the same steps

x2 - 12x + 9x - 108 >>>>  take common x(x-12) + 9 ( x -12) >>>

(x + 9)  (x - 12) final product

Now, Simplify the equation as a whole

 (x + 2)  (x - 12) /  (x + 9)  (x - 12)                         Note:  (x - 12) cancels out  

=  (x + 2) /  (x + 9)     with x= -2 and x= -9
