Identify the polygon with vertices A(5,0), B(2,4), C(−2,1), and D(1,−3), and then find the perimeter and area of the polygon. HE

inn [45]

Answer:

Part 1) The polygon is a square

Part 2) The perimeter is equal to $20\ units$

Part 3) The area is equal to $25\ units^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$A(5,0), B(2,4), C(-2,1),D(1,-3)$

Plot the points

see the attached figure

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

Find the distance AB

$A(5,0),B(2,4)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(4-0)^{2}+(2-5)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(-3)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$AB=5\ units$

Find the distance BC

$B(2,4), C(-2,1)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(1-4)^{2}+(-2-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$BC=5\ units$

Find the distance CD

$C(-2,1),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-1)^{2}+(1+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-4)^{2}+(3)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$CD=5\ units$

Find the distance AD

$A(5,0),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-0)^{2}+(1-5)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$AD=5\ units$

we have that

AB=BC=CD=AD

Find the distance BD (diagonal)

$B(2,4),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-4)^{2}+(1-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-7)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$BD=\sqrt{50}\ units$

<em>Verify if the polygon is a square</em>

If the triangle BDA is a right triangle, then the polygon is a square

Applying the Pythagoras theorem

$BD^{2}=AD^{2}+AB^{2}$

substitute

$(\sqrt{50})^{2}=5^{2}+5^{2}$

$50=50$ -----> is true

so

The triangle BDA is a right triangle

therefore

The polygon is a square

<em>Find the Area of the polygon</em>

The area of a square is equal to

$A=b^{2}$

we have

$b=5\ units$

$A=5^{2}=25\ units^{2}$

<em>Find the perimeter of the polygon</em>

The perimeter of a square is equal to

$P=4b$

we have

$b=5\ units$

$P=4(5)=20\ units$

Alayna worked 44 hours last week. Her hourly rate is $9.00. Alayna’s gross pay for last week was $

Leni [432]

Answer:

$396

Step-by-step explanation:

Alayna's hourly rate (or pay per hour) is $9.

She worked 44 hours in total last week. To solve, multiply 44 with 9

44 x 9 = $396

Alayna's gross pay for last week was $396.

Help Pls! I need this fast!

lesya [120]

Answer: 36

Step-by-step explanation:

$\overline{AB} \cong \overline{BC}$ (Triangle ABC is isosceles)

$m\angle CAB=m\angle CBA=30^{\circ}$ (base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent)

$\angle MCB=90^{\circ}$ (In triangle CMB, angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees)

$\angle ACM=30^{\circ}$ (triangle sum theorem)

$MB=24$ (30-60-90 triangle CMB)

$AB=12$ (sides opposite congruent angles in a triangle are congruent)

$AB=36$ (segment addition postulate)
