Answer:

The area of the parallelogram is;

32 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The coordinates of the parallelogram RSTU = R(-4, 4), S(2, 6), T(6, 2), and U(0, 0)

We note that the area of a parallelogram = Base length × Height

From the drawing of the parallelogram RSTU, we have;

The base length = The length of \overline {TU} = The length of \overline {SR} = √((2 - (-4))² + (6 - 4)²) = 2·√10

The height of a parallelogram is perpendicular to its base length = The line \overline {VT}

∴ Where, the slope of the base length = m, the slope of the height = -1/m

The slope, 'm' of \overline {SR} = (6 - 4)/(2 - (-4)) = 1/3

Therefore, the slope of the height = -1/(1/3) = -3

We note that a point on the height is the point 'T', therefore, the equation of the line in point and slope form is therefore;

y - 0 = -3·(x - 0)

∴ y = -3·x

Therefore, the coordinates of the point 'V' is given by the simultaneous solution of the equations of \overline {SR} and \overline {VT}

The equation of the line \overline {SR} in point and slope form from the point 'R' and the slope 'm = 1/3' is given as follows;

y - 4 = (1/3) × (x - (-4)) = (1/3) × (x + 4)

y = x/3 + 4/3 + 4 = x/3 + 16/3

y = x/3 + 16/3

We then have the coordinate at the point 'V' (x, y) is given as follows;

-3·x = x/3 + 16/3

-9·x = x + 16

-10·x = 16

x = -16/10 = -1.6

x = -1.6

∴ y = -3·x = -3 × -1.6 = -4.8

y = 4.8

The coordinate at the point, V = (-1.6, 4.8)

The length of the line \overline {VT} = The height of the parallelogram = √((-1.6 - 0)² + (4.8 - 0)²) = 8/5·√10

The height of the parallelogram = 8/5·√10

The area of the parallelogram, A = Base length × Height

∴ A = 2·√(10) × 8/5·√(10) = (16/5) × 10 = 32

The area of the parallelogram, A =  32 square units.

Solve this equation -98=7(n-7)
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
-98=7(n-7)

-98=7n-49

7n=-98+49

7n=-49

Therefore n=-7, as 7(-7)=-49.

Polygon ABCD is defined by the points A(-4,2) B(-2, 4), C(1, 3) & D(2,2). Match the coordinates of the points of the transfo
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

D'(-2, 2); C''(3, -1); A'''(4, -2); and B''(4, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for the figure.

<u>For D'</u>, rotating the point (2, 2) 90° counterclockwise. This maps each point (x, y)→(-y, x); it takes (2, 2)→(-2, 2).  

For C'', rotating the point (1, 3) 90° clockwise.  This maps each point (x, y)→(y, -x); it takes (1, 3)→(3, -1).

For A''', rotating the point (-4, 2) 180° clockwise.  This maps every point (x, y)→(-x, -y); it takes (-4, 2)→(4, -2).

For B'', rotating the point (-2, 4) 270° counterclockwise.  This is the similar as rotating the point 90° clockwise.  This maps every point (x, y)→(y, -x); it takes (-2, 4)→(4, 2).
