Explanation:

a. The line joining the midpoints of the parallel bases is perpendicular to both of them. It is the line of symmetry for the trapezoid. This means the angles and sides on one side of that line of symmetry are congruent to the corresponding angles and sides on the other side of the line. The diagonals are the same length.

__

b. We observe that adjacent pairs of points have the same x-coordinate, so are on vertical lines, which have undefined slope. KN is a segment of the line x=1; LM is a segment of the line x=3. If the trapezoid is isosceles, the midpoints of these segments will be on a horizontal line. The midpoint of KN is at y=(3-2)/2 = 1/2. The midpoint of LM is at y=(1+0)/2 = 1/2. These points are on the same horizontal line, so the trapezoid <em>is isosceles</em>.

__

c. We observed in part (b) that the parallel sides are KN and LM. The coordinate difference between K and L is (1, 3) -(3, 1) = (-2, 2). That is, segment KL is the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle with side lengths 2, so the lengths of KL and MN are both 2√2.

_____

For part (c), we used the shortcut that the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is √2 times the leg length.

Answer: Not 100% sure but this is what I think.

-4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

(5, -1) (15, −9)

1Y - 2Y / 1X - 2X = SLOPE

-1 + 9 / 5 - 15 = 8/-10 = -8/10 = -4/5

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

I think what they are asking is to subtract the 3 tokens from 21 tokens he already has giving us 18. and since it says "Twice the number of tokens" I'm assuming you divide 2 from 18 giving you 9 tokens.

Solve x^2-8x=3 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation
kkurt [141]

Answer:

{-0.36, 8.36) to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 8x = 3

(x - 4)^2 - 16 = 3

(x - 4)^2 = 19

Taking square roots:

x - 4 = +/- √19

x =  4 +/- √19

x = {-0.36, 8.36} to nearest 1/100.
