Answer:

Trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadrilateral has vertices at points A(-2,-1), B(3,13), C(15,5) and D(13,-11).

Find slopes of lines AD and BC:

\text{Slope}_{AD}=\dfrac{y_D-y_A}{x_D-x_A}=\dfrac{-11-(-1)}{13-(-2)}=\dfrac{-11+1}{13+2}=\dfrac{-10}{15}=-\dfrac{2}{3}\\ \\\text{Slope}_{BC}=\dfrac{y_C-y_B}{x_C-x_B}=\dfrac{5-13}{15-3}=\dfrac{-8}{12}=-\dfrac{2}{3}

Since the slopes are the same, lines AD and BC are parallel.

Find slopes of lines ABD and CD:

\text{Slope}_{AB}=\dfrac{y_B-y_A}{x_B-x_A}=\dfrac{13-(-1)}{3-(-2)}=\dfrac{14}{5}\\ \\\text{Slope}_{CD}=\dfrac{y_D-y_C}{x_D-x_C}=\dfrac{-11-5}{13-15}=\dfrac{-16}{-2}=8

Since the slopes are different, lines AB and CD are not parallel.

This means quadrilateral ABCD is trapezoid (two opposite sides - parallel and two another opposite sides - not parallel)

Finger [1]

Answer:

11) 153, 85, 238 12) 12, 15, 27

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of these shapes, you have to cut them into two seperate shapes as shown the in the image: Shape 1 and Shape 2

11) Let Shape 1 be the rectangle: 17×9=153

let Shape 2 be the triangle: \frac{1}{2}×10×8.5=42.5×2=85

Total area: 153 + 85 = 238

12) Let cut this shape vertically where you'll have a rectangle thats 3 by 4 and a rectangle that's 5 by 3

Shape 1: 3×4=12

Shape 2: 5×3=15

Total area: 15 + 12 = 27
