You are going to mow your neighbor's lawn for some extra money. Below is a scale drawing of their lawn, where each square repres

ents 5 feet.
1. Prove which type of quadrilateral this lawn is. Insert the image of your work with the final answer in the box below:
It is a rectangle.

2. What is the perimeter of the real lawn (not the scale drawing)?



3. Your neighbor will either pay you $40 as a flat rate, or they will give you $0.03 for each sq. foot (3 cents per square foot). Which would make you the most money? Show all your work on a paper and insert the image with the final answer here

Answer:

  1. rectangle; parallelogram with 90° angle
  2. 150 feet
  3. $40 flat rate

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The slope of AB is ...

  mAB = (yB-yA)/(xB-xA) = (4-0)/(6-3) = 4/3

The slope of AD is ...

  mAD = (yD-yA)/(xD-xA) = (6-0)/(-5-3) = 6/-8 = -3/4

The product of these slopes is (4/3)(-3/4) = -1, so the segments AB and AD are perpendicular.

The midpoints of AC and BD will be the same if the sum of their coordinates is the same:

  A+C = (3, 0) +(-2, 10) = (1, 10)

  B+D = (6, 4) +(-5, 6) = (1, 10)

The midpoints of the diagonals of ABCD are the same, so the figure is a parallelogram. One corner angle is 90°, so the parallelogram is a rectangle. The quadrilateral ABCD is a rectangle.

__

2.  Using the coordinate differences found in part 1, we know the length AB is the hypotenuse of a 3-4-5 triangle, so is 5 grid squares. Similarly, the length of AD is twice that length, so is 10 grid squares. The perimeter in grid squares is ...

  P = 2(L+W) = 2(10+5) = 30 . . . . grid squares

Each grid square represents 5 ft, so the perimeter is ...

  (30 squares)(5 ft/square) = 150 ft . . . perimeter

__

3. The rectangle is 5 × 10 grid squares, or 25 × 50 ft. Then its area is ...

  A = LW = (50 ft)(25 ft) = 1250 ft²

At $0.03/ft², the payment for mowing would be ...

  ($0.03/ft²)(1250 ft²) = $37.50

The $40 flat rate would make you the most money.

Hello there! This statement is TRUE.

The question is asking you if it is true that 11 - 4 is greater than 4 + 2. To get an answer, Solve both of the problems.

11 - 4 = 7.

4 + 2 = 6.

So, is 7 greater than 6? Yes, it is greater than 6 by 1. This means the answer is true. I hope this was helpful and have a great rest of your day!
