D is halfway between A and B

so the coordinates of D are (2,2)

E is halfway between A and C so the coordinates of E are (-1,1)

now you need to find the gradient/slope of DE and BC using the formula:

y2 - y1 ÷ x2 - x1

Gradient of DE:

SUB IN COORDINATES OF D AND E

1-2 ÷ -1-2

therefore the gradient of DE is 1/3.

Gradient of BC:

SUB IN COORDINATES OF B AND C

- 2 - 0 ÷ - 3 - 3

therefore the gradient of BC is -2/-6 which simplifies to 1/3.

therefore, BC and DE are parallel as they both have a gradient/slope of 1/3 and parallel lines have the same gradient

Describe how you would use a yardstick to measure a rug
Dafna11 [192]
Well first of this makes sense because you need to make sure your rug will fit.  So anyways, first lay your rug out on a flat surface, grab your yardstick, lay it on the rug to find the length and then the width.  you then know the size of your rug(assuming its square).  You can do the same thing in the room you want it in.
