Open the compass it is more than half of the distance between a and b, and scribes arcs of the same radius centered at a and b. call the two points where these two arcs meet c and d. Draw the line between c and d. CD it is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment AB. call the point where CD intersects AB and E
Answer:
- reflection in x = 1
- translation up 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The orientation of B is the opposite of the orientation of A, so a reflection is involved. The smallest angle is at the bottom in both figures, and the largest angle is on the right in A and the left in B, so the reflection is left-right, rather than up-down.
The point midway between the largest angle vertices is on the vertical line x=1, so that line can be used for reflection. Reflecting A across that line will put its large-angle vertex at (3, 0), so a translation up 2 units is also needed.
The reflection on x=1 and translation up 2 can be done in either order.

<em>Additional comment</em>
A combination of reflection and translation is called a "glide reflection." Our choice of x = 1 as the line of reflection takes care of any horizontal translation that would be required if a different vertical line were used. For example, reflection across the y-axis would require a subsequent translation up 2 and right 2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the given expressions, we can write the area as ...
A = BH
42 = (2x +1)(x +3) = 2x^2 +7x +3
2x ^2 +7x -39 = 0
(x -3)(2x +13) = 0
x = 3 or -6.5 . . . . . these values make the factors be zero
In order for the parallelogram to have positive dimensions, the value of x must be 3. So, the base and height are ...
base = 2(3) +1 = 7
height = 3 +3 = 6
