Answer:
Sail 1 and Sail 2 are congruent and the same
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<em>not</em> a rectangle
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several ways to determine whether the quadrilateral is a rectangle. Computing slope is one of the more time-consuming. We can already learn that the figure is not a rectangle by seeing if the midpoint of AC is the same as that of BD. (It is not.) A+C = (-5+4, 5+2) = (-1, 7). B+D = (1-2, 8-2) = (-1, 6). (A+C)/2 ≠ (B+D)/2, so the midpoints of the diagonals are different points.
___
The slope of AB is ∆y/∆x, where the ∆y is the change in y-coordinates, and ∆x is the change in x-coordinates.
... AB slope = (8-5)/(1-(-5)) = 3/6 = 1/2
The slope of AD is computed in similar fashion.
... AD slope = (-2-5)/(-2-(-5)) = -7/3
The product of these slopes is (1/2)(-7/3) = -7/6 ≠ -1. Since the product is not -1, the segments AB and AD are not perpendicular to each other. Adjacent sides of a rectangle are perpendicular, so this figure is not a rectangle.
___
Our preliminary work with the diagonals showed us the figure was not a parallelogram (hence not a rectangle). For our slope calculation, we "magically" chose two sides that were not perpendicular. In fact, this choice was by "trial and error". Side BC <em>is perpendicular</em> to AB, so we needed to choose a different side to find one that wasn't. A graph of the points is informative, but we didn't start with that.
Answer:
you have an odd number, divide by 2 and round up to get the position of the median number.
Step-by-step explanation:
you have an even number, divide by 2. Go to the number in that position and average it with the number in the next higher position to get the median.
Since we need your monthly bill we will call it the variable B for now, (Unless you have the bill, if so replace it with the variable)
Multiply 1.64 x B since the exchange rate is different than the US bill,
For example, say your bill is $100 in the U.S.
You do 1.64 x 100 = A monthly bill of $164 if you lived in Britain
