Jordan lives 6 kilometers due south of his parents' house and 4 kilometers west of his grandparents' house. On his birthday, Jor

dan drove from his house to his parents' house. From there, he drove in a straight line to his grandparents' house and then back home. How far did Jordan drive on his birthday? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The direction of movement of Jordan on his birthday forms a right angle triangle. His movement from his house to his parents due south represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle. His movement due west represents the adjacent side and the movement back home along the straight line, d represents the hypotenuse. To determine d, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem. Thus

d² = 6² + 4² = 52

d = √52 = 7.2 km

The total distance that he drove on his birthday is

6 + 4 + 7.2 = 17.2 km

HIJK is a parallelogram because the midpoint of both diagonals is

(1 , 0), which means the diagonals bisect each other

Step-by-step explanation:

If (x , y) is the mid-point of a segment whose end points are (x_{1},y_{1})  and  (x_{2},y_{2})  then,

  • x=\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}
  • y=\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}

In a parallelogram, its diagonals intersect each other at their mid-points

that means its diagonals bisect each other

∵ HIJK is a quadrilateral

∵ HJ and IK are its diagonals

∵ H = (-2 , 2)

∵ J = (4 , -2)

- Find the mid point of HJ  

∵ M_{HJ}=(\frac{-2+4}{2},\frac{2+-2}{2})

∴ M_{HJ}=(\frac{2}{2},\frac{0}{2})

∴ M_{HJ}=(1,0)

∴ The mid-point of HJ is (1 , 0)

∵ I = (4 , 3)

∵ K = (-2 , -3)

- Find the mid point of IK  

∵ M_{IK}=(\frac{4+-2}{2},\frac{3+-3}{2})

∴ M_{IK}=(\frac{2}{2},\frac{0}{2})

∴ M_{IK}=(1,0)

∴ The mid-point of IK is (1 , 0)

∵ The mid-points of HJ and IK are equal

∴ HJ and IK bisects each other

∴ HIJK is a parallelogram because its diagonals bisect each other

HIJK is a parallelogram because the midpoint of both diagonals is

(1 , 0), which means the diagonals bisect each other

One angle of a triangle is a right angle. The second angle measures 41 degrees. What is the measurement of the third angle? A. 4
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

All triangles add up to 180 degrees

right angles are 90 degrees

we add 41 and 90 to find how many degrees are already there

41 + 90 = 131

we need 180 degrees so we see how many degrees are left

180 - 131 = 49

49 degrees are left so 49 is the answer because 49 finishes the triangle

Hope this helps
