What's the area of this rectangle?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Bess [88]2 years ago
7 0

well, the assumption is that is a rectangle, namely it has two equal pairs, so we can just find the length of one of the pairs to get the dimensions.

hmmmm let's say let's get the length of the segment at (-1,-3), (1,3) for its length

and

the length of the segment at (-1, -3), (-4, -2) for its width

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-3})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ \stackrel{length}{L}=\sqrt{[1-(-1)]^2+[3-(-3)]^2}\implies L=\sqrt{(1+1)^2+(3+3)^2} \\\\\\ L=\sqrt{4+36}\implies L=\sqrt{40} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-3})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-2})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ \stackrel{width}{w}=\sqrt{[-4-(-1)]^2+[-2-(-3)]^2}\implies w=\sqrt{(-4+1)^2+(-2+3)^2} \\\\\\ w=\sqrt{9+1}\implies w=\sqrt{10} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{area of the rectangle}}{A=Lw}\implies \sqrt{40}\cdot \sqrt{10}\implies \sqrt{400}\implies \boxed{20}

15 points. What is the value of k?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

k = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

∠ ZYM is an exterior angle of the triangle, thus

4k + 5 + 6k + 10 = 115, that is

10k + 15 = 115 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

10k = 100 ( divide both sides by 10 )

k = 10

8. Jess walked for 45 minutes at 3 km/h and then ran for half an hour at x km/h. At the end
Law Incorporation [45]

<u>Answer:</u>

x = 7.5 km/h

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

• First calculate the distance covered by walking at 3 km/h for 45 minutes ( 0.75 h):

distance = speed × time

              = 3 × 0.75

              = 2.25 km

• Therefore, she covered 2.25 km of the total journey by walking. Since she was 6 km from the starting point at the end of the entire journey, we can calculate the distance remaining, which she had to run:

distance she had to run = 6 - 2.25

                                        = 3.75 km

• Now we can calculate the speed of the 30 minute (0.5 h) run:

speed = distance ÷ time

           = 3.75 ÷ 0.5

           = 7.5 km/h    

This means that she ran at 7.5 km/h for half an hour.

∴ x = 7.5
