Quadrilateral RSTU has vertices R(1,3), S(4,1), T(1,-3) and U(-2,-1). Is it true or false that this is a rectangle because the d

iagonals are congruent and the sides RS and ST are perpendicular?

Given vertices ofQuadrilateral RSTU as R(1,3), S(4,1), T(1,-3) and U(-2,-1).

We need to check if diagonals are congruent.

The coordinates of verticales diagonal RT are R(1,3) and  T(1,-3).

The coordinates of verticales diagonal SU are S(4,1), and  U(-2,-1),

By applying distance formula:

\mathrm{Compute\:the\:distance\:between\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\quad \sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}

RT = =\sqrt{\left(1-1\right)^2+\left(-3-3\right)^2}=\sqrt{36}

RT = 6

SU  =\sqrt{\left(-2-4\right)^2+\left(-1-1\right)^2}.

=2\sqrt{10}.

Diagonal RT is not congruent to Diagonal SU.

Therefore, Quadrilateral RSTU  is not a rectangle because the diagonals are not congruent.

So, it is False.

If x^(2) = 64 and y^(2)= 121 what is the value of x-y?
GalinKa [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>the value of x is 8</em>

8^(2) = 64

the value of y is 11

11^(2) = 121

x - y

= 8 - 11

= -3

What can you say about the quotient, when you divide 23 by something equal to 1?
Gwar [14]

Answer: the quotient will be equal to 23

The equation to calculate what divided by 23 equals 1 is as follows:

X/23 = 1

Where X is the answer. When we solve the equation by multiplying each side by 23, you get get:

X = 23

Therefore, the answer to what divided by 23 equals 1 is 23

so the quotient will be equal to 23
