Answer:

The quadrilateral is a SQUARE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Four points

A(4,1)  

B(1,5)

C(-3,2)

D(0, -2)

The quadrilateral formed will be ABCD with sides AB, BC, CD, AD. In order to prove if a quadrilateral is a square we have to prove that all sides of the quadrilateral are equal.

We will use the two-point distance formula to calculate lengths of sides of quadrilateral.

The distance formula:

d= √((x_2- x_1)^2+(y_2- y_1)^2  )

So, for side AB

AB= √((1- 4)^2+(5- 1)^2  )

= √((-3)^2+(4)^2  )

= √(9+16)

= √25

= 5 units

For BC

BC= √((-3- 1)^2+(2- 5)^2  )

= √((-4)^2+(-3)^2  )

= √(16+9)

= √25

= 5 units

For CD

BC= √((0-(-3))^2+(-2-2)^2  )

= √((0+3)^2+(-4)^2  )

= √(9+16)

= √25

= 5 units

For AD

AD= √((0-4)^2+(-2-1)^2  )

= √((-4)^2+(-3)^2  )

= √(16+9)

= √25

= 5 units

As all the sides are equal

AB=BC=CD=AD

= 5 units

So the quadrilateral is a square.

Rachel's biscuits require 0.75 cup of milk for 1 batch. Use dimensional analysis to convert this amount into liters. Use the con
g100num [7]

Answer:

0.75 cup = 0.1763 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question:

Using the conversion factors given in question

We are converting

0.75 cup to liters

Step 1

Convert cups to pint

1 cup = 0.5 pints

0.75 cup = x pints

x = 0.75 × 0.5 pints

x = 0.375 pints

Step 2

Convert pints to Quart

1 pints = 0.5 quart

0.375 pint = x quart

Cross Multiply

x quart = 0.375 × 0.5 quart

x quart = 0.1875 quart

Step 3

Convert from quart

1 quart = 0.94 liter

0.1875 quart = x liter

Cross Multiply

x liter = 0.1875 × 0.94 liter

x liter = 0.17625 liters

Approximately to 4 significant figures= 0.75 cup = 0.1763 liters

Work out the equation of the line which has a gradient of -2 and passes through the point (1,7)
Ilya [14]

point slope form of a line

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-7 = -2 (x-1)

if you want it in slope intercept form

y-7 = -2x +2

add 7 to each side

y = -2x +9
