Answer:

114 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so

AB = CD , that is

13x - 7 = 5x + 9 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

8x - 7 = 9 ( add 7 to both sides )

8x = 16 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 2

Then

5x + 9 = 5(2) + 9 = 10 + 9 = 19

3x = 3(2) = 6

The area (A) of a parallelogram is calculated as

A = bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height ), thus

A = 19 × 6 = 114 units²

PIT_PIT [208]
I don't have a visual I can provide, but the ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the perimeters of a 2D figure.

Intuitively, you can imagine that the triangle is simply being "scaled up" by a factor of 7/3, so the base scales up to 7/3 its original length and the height becomes 7/3 its original height.

Therefore, the new ratio is the square of the ratio of the perimeters, which is 9:49.

Find the equation of the straight line passing through the point (3,5)
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x + 2

Slope m = 3

slope of the line perpendicular to this line = -3

Point (3,5)

y- y1 = m(x-x1)

y - 5 = -3(x-3)

y - 5 = -3*x-3 * -3

y - 5 = -3x + 9

     y = -3x + 9 +5

     y = -3x + 14
