Answer:

The area of the rectangle is 42 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of rectangle is equal to

A=LW

In this problem

AB=DC

BC=AD

see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem

we have that

L=BC\\W=AB

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

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

we have the points

A(2,-1),B(5,2),C(12,-5),D(9,-8)

<em>Find out the distance BC</em>

we have

B(5,2),C(12,-5)

substitute in the formula

d=\sqrt{(-5-2)^{2}+(12-5)^{2}}

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

d_B_C=\sqrt{98}\ units

<em>Find out the distance AB</em>

we have

A(2,-1),B(5,2)

substitute in the formula

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

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

d_A_B=\sqrt{18}\ units

<em>Find out the area</em>

A=(L)(W)

we have

L=d_B_C=\sqrt{98}\ units

W=d_A_B=\sqrt{18}\ units

substitute

A=(\sqrt{98})(\sqrt{18})=42.0\ units^2

Peter is placing a rectangle in the coordinate plane. He knows that the shorter side of the rectangle is one-third the length of
katrin [286]

Answer:

(0,a)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> the length side of the rectangle

y------> the width side of the rectangle

we know that

y=\frac{1}{3}x ---> equation A

x=3a ---> equation B (given problem)

substitute equation B in equation A

y=\frac{1}{3}3a=a

so

the coordinate of the top-left vertex of the rectangle is equal to

(0,a)

2. Evaluate f(x) = 3x+5/x-1<br> at x = 3
pashok25 [27]

Answer

Let f(x) = ax + b

Then

f(x + 1) = a(x + 1) + b

= ax + a + b

Hence, a = 3, and a + b = 5, b = 2

f(-2) = 3(-2) + 2

= -6 + 2

= - 4

f(2x) = 3(2x ) + 2

= 6x + 2

Construct a circle through points x y and z
faust18 [17]
1. Open the compass to a little more than halfway across the line segment XY. Draw an arc centered at the first endpoint X across the line segment XY. Without changing the width of the compass, place the compass tip on the second endpoint Y. Draw a second arc across the line segment XY.
2. Line up a straightedge with the intersection of the arcs above the line XY, and the intersection of the arcs below the line. Draw a line connecting these two points. The line you draw is a perpendicular bisector. It bisects the line XY at a right angle.
3. Use a compass and straightedge to construct the bisectors of the line YZ as you did with the first line segment. Extend the bisectors long enough that they intersect. The point of their intersection is the center of the circle.
4. The radius of a circle is the distance from the center to any point on the circle’s edge. To set the width, place the tip of the compass on the center of the circle, and open the compass to any one of your original points.Swing the compass around 360 degrees so that it draws a complete circle. The circle should pass through all three points.
