Answer:

A diagonal of this rectangle has length 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices (-4, 4) and (-4, -4) have the same x-coordinate (-4) and different y-coordinates (4 and -4).  These two points are the endpoints of a vertical side of the rectangle which has length 4 - (-4) = 8.

Similarly, the vertices (2, -4) and (-4, -4) have the same y-coordinate (-4) but different x-coordinates (2 and -4).  To find the horizontal dimension of the rectangle, we calculate 2 - (-4), which comes out to 6.

Thus, the width of the rectangle is 6 and the length is 8.

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we find the length of a diagonal as follows:

d = √(6^2 + 8^2) = √(36 + 64) = √100 = 10.

A diagonal of this rectangle has length 10.

Write the linear equation in slope intercept form 2x+By=16
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Part 1) y=-\frac{2x}{B}x+\frac{16}{B}

Part 2) y=-\frac{1}{4}x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

we have

2x+By=16

Isolate the variable y

subtract 2x both sides

By=-2x+16

Divide by B both sides

y=-\frac{2x}{B}x+\frac{16}{B}

Part 2)

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

we have

2x+8y=16

Isolate the variable y

subtract 2x both sides

8y=-2x+16

Divide by 8 both sides

y=-\frac{2x}{8}x+\frac{16}{8}

Simplify

y=-\frac{1}{4}x+2

Simple geometry please help<br><br> Find KL. Round to the nearest hundredth.
vivado [14]

Answer:

KL ≈ 1.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos48° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{JL}{KL} = \frac{1.3}{KL} ( multiply both sides by KL )

KL × cos48° = 1.3 ( divide both sides by cos48° )

KL = \frac{1.3}{cos48} ≈ 1.94 ( to the nearest hundredth )
