Given:

The three vertices of a parallelogram are (-3,8), (4,5), (2,-5).

To find:

The fourth vertex of the parallelogram.

Solution:

Let the vertices of the parallelogram are A(-3,8), B(4,5), C(2,-5) and D(a,b).

We know that, diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. It means midpoints of both diagonals are same.

Midpoint formula:

Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)

Two diagonals of ABCD are AC and BD.

Midpoint of AC = Midpoint of BD

\left(\dfrac{-3+2}{2},\dfrac{8-5}{2}\right)=\left(\dfrac{4+a}{2},\dfrac{5+b}{2}\right)

\left(\dfrac{-1}{2},\dfrac{3}{2}\right)=\left(\dfrac{4+a}{2},\dfrac{5+b}{2}\right)

On comparing both sides, we get

\dfrac{4+a}{2}=\dfrac{-1}{2}

4+a=-1

a=-1-4

a=-5

And,

\dfrac{5+b}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}

5+b=3

b=3-5

b=-2

Therefore, the coordinates of fourth vertex are (-5,-2).

A rectangle's length is twice its width. if the perimeter is 132 cm, find the width of the rectangle.
Over [174]
Perimeter=(2*length)+(2*width)
length=2*w
132=(2(2w))+(2w)
132=(4w)+(2w)
132=6w
w=22

In 2000, the population of a county was 25,300,987. The population decreased at a rate of 2% each year. What was the population
EastWind [94]

Answer: In 2008 the population was 21,525,144

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use the following formula for Exponential decay:

P=P_0(1-r)^t

Where P_0 is the initial population in the year 0, r is the rate of decay and t is the time.

In this case, you can identify that:

P_0=25,300,987\\\\r=2\%\\\\t=8

Therefore, substituting these values into the formula for Exponential decay, you get:

P=P_0(1-r)^t\\\\P=(25,300,987)(1-\frac{2}{100})^8\\\\P=21,525,144

Then, in 2008 the population was 21,525,144

The circumference of a circle is 28 pi meters. What is its radius
astraxan [27]

Circumference's formula is: 2πr

Since π is not added in the total (as it is 28π), just divide 28 with 2 to get r

28/2 = 14

The radius is 14

hope this helps
