If the slope of AB = CD and BC = AD it's a parallelogram:
Slope of AB = 6+1 / -9+5 = -7/4
CD = -2-5 / 3+1 = -74
These are equal.
BC = 5-6 / -1 +9 = -1/8
AD = -2 +1 / 3+5 = -1/8
These are also equal so it is a parallelogram.
Now to find if the diagonals are perpendicular find the slope of the perpensicular points:
AC = 5 +1 / -1 +5 = 6/4 = 3/2
BD = 6+2 / -9 -3 = 8/-12 = -2/3
Because BD is the reciprocal of AC, this means they are perpendicular.
And because AB is not perpendicular to AD ( AB and AD are not reciprocals) it is a rhombus.
Answer:
(5, 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = x² - 2x - 15 → (1)
y = 8x - 40 → (2)
Substitute y = x² - 2x - 15 into (2)
x² - 2x - 15 = 8x - 40 ( subtract 8x - 40 from both sides )
x² - 10x + 25 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 5)² = 0 ← in factored form, thus
x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5
Substitute x = 5 into (2) for corresponding value of y
y = 8(5) - 40 = 40 - 40 = 0
Solution is (5, 0 )
Answer:
(4.25,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates and divide by 2
x = (3+5.5) /2 = 8.5/2 =4.25
To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates and divide by 2
y = ( 4+0)/2 = 4/2 =2
