Answer:

The area of quadrilateral ABCD is 139 unit^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Quadrilateral ABCD whose vertices are A(1,1) B(7,-3) C(12,2) D(7,21).

Now, to find the area.

The coordinates of the quadrilateral are A(1,1), B(7,-3), C(12,2), D(7,21).

So, to find the area we need to bisect the quadrilateral ABCD and get the triangles ABC and ADC and then calculate their areas:

In Δ ABC:

A(x_1,y_1)=(1,1)\:,\:B(x_2,y_2)=(7,-3)\:and\:C(x_3,y_3)=(12,2)

Now, to get the area of triangle ABC:

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)\right|

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|1(-3-2)+(7)(2-1)+12(1--3)\right|

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|1(-5)+(7)(1)+12(4)\right|

On solving we get:

Area\,of\,triangle\,=25.

In Δ ADC:

A(x_1,y_1)=(1,1)\:,\:D(x_2,y_2)=(7,21)\:and\:C(x_3,y_3)=(12,2)

Now, to get the area of triangle ADC:

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)\right|

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|1(21-2)+(7)(2-1)+12(1-21)\right|

On solving it by same process as above we get:

Area\,of\,triangle\,=114

Now, to get the area of the quadrilateral we add the areas of the triangles ABC and ADC:

25+114\\=25+114\\=139\ unit^2

Therefore, area of quadrilateral ABCD is 139 unit^2.

Determine if the following are in proportion :
KATRIN_1 [288]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given numbers are : 32 , 48 , 140 , 120

First number is 32

Second number is 48

Third number is 140

Fourth number is 120

First number/second number :

\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}=\dfrac{32}{48}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{3}\ ....(1)

Third number/Fouth number :

\dfrac{N_3}{N_4}=\dfrac{140}{120}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{6}\ ....(2)

From equation (1) and (2) we can see that the ratio is not same. Hence, they are not in proportion.

Uss the distributive property to write an equivalent expression for 21p + 35q
Mama L [17]
Hey there!
It looks like we're factoring.
I always like to think of factoring as the opposite of the distributive property, and you'll see why.
First, we have to <em>factor</em> out a common <em>factor</em> from 21p and 35q, which we'll use as 7.
7 times 3p = 21p and 7 times 5q = 35q
Using our distributive property which is defined as:
a(b+c) = ab+ac we have:
7(3p + 5q)
Multiply it out and you'll get 21p and 35q.
Hope this helps!
