Answer:

The correct option is 4.

4) Doing two distance formulas to show that adjacent sides are not the same length.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram is a quadrilateral which has opposite sides equals and parallel. Example of a parallelogram are rhombus, rectangle, square etc.

We can prove that a quadrilateral MNOP is a parallelogram. If we find the slopes of all four sides and compare those of the opposite ends, same slopes would indicate the opposite sides are parallel, hence the quarilateral is a parallelogram. We can also find the distance of two opposing sides, and slopes of twp opposing sides to determine whether it is a parallelogram or not. The most difficult approach is that diagonals bisect each other at same point.

However, using only two distance formulas will not give us enough information to determine whether a side is parallel or not.

<h3>What is Pythagoras theorem?</h3>

The Pythagorean theorem, sometimes known as Pythagoras' theorem, is a basic relationship between the three sides of a right triangle in Euclidean geometry. The size of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides, according to this rule.

A triangle has points to monkeys, giraffes, and lions. The distance between lions and monkeys is 11 feet and between monkeys and giraffes is 16 feet. The distance between lions and giraffes is the hypotenuse of x feet. The equation that will find the distance between the lions and giraffes is,
