Answer:

Suppose: M, N, P, Q are the midpoints of AB, BC, CD, AD respectively

=> MNPQ is the quadrilateral inside ABCD

connect B to D, ΔABD has : M is the midpoint of AB

                                              Q is the midpoint of AD

=> MQ is the midpoint polygon of ΔABD

=> MQ // BD and MQ = 1/2.BD (1)

ΔBCD has: N is the midpoint of BC

                  P is the midpoint of DC

=> NP is the midpoint polygon of ΔBCD

=> NP // BD and NP = 1/2.BD    (2)

from (1) and (2) => MQ // NP ( //BD)

                            MQ = NP  (=1/2.BD)

=> MNPQ is a parallelogram.​

=>  the quadrilateral inside ABCD is a parallelogram.​

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (5, -10) and
Mariana [72]

Answer:

m(slope)=0

Step-by-step explanation:

To find slope given two points, use the formula m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

(-10) - (-10)/(-3) - 5

0/-8

Anything being divided from 0, or divided by 0 is always 0, so the slope is 0.

Hope this helps.

JG bisects FJH, FJG= (2x + 4)° and GJH = (3x -9)° <br> What is FJH
Kitty [74]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

60

Discussion:

As JG bisects FJG,  

FJG     = GJH                =>

2x + 4 = 3x-9                => subtract 2x from each side

4         = 3x -2x - 9        => simplify

4         = x - 9                => add 9 to both sides

4 + 9   = x

x = 13

Now, FJH =

FJG        + GJH

(2x + 4)  + (3x-9) =

5x -5                             => substitute x 13

5(13) -5  =

65 - 5 =

60

Thank you,

MrB
