Answer:

Isosceles triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of side AB = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

                              = \sqrt{(-11+3)^2+(2-6)^2}

                              = \sqrt{64+16}

                              = \sqrt{80}

                              = 4\sqrt{5}

Length of BC = \sqrt{(-4+11)^2+(-2-2)^2}

                      = \sqrt{49+16}

                      = \sqrt{65}

Length of AC = \sqrt{(-3+4)^2+(6+2)^2}

                      = \sqrt{1+64}

                      = \sqrt{65}

Since, AC = BC, ΔABC will be an isosceles triangle.

I need to find the perimeter and area of the regular polygon.
mezya [45]
The area of a polygon is given by the formula Area = ap/2 where a is the length of the apothem and p is the perimeter. The apothem is a line from the center of the polygon perpendicular to a side.

Depending on the formula you know, you can find the length of a side in 1 of 2 ways. 

The first way uses a triangle. Using the radius of the polygon you can create 8 congruent triangles. The center angle will be 360 / 8 = 45 and two side lengths of 20. You can find the length of the base using the law of cosines.

c^2 = 20^2 + 20^2 - 2(20)(20)(cos 45)
c^2 = 400 + 400 - 800(cos 45)
c^2 = 800 - 800(cos 45)
c = sqrt(800 - 800(cos 45)
c = 15.31

The second way is to use this formula:
r = s / (2 sin(180 / n))
20 = s / (2 sin(180/8)
(20)(2)sin(22.5) = s
(40)sin(22.5) = s
s = 15.31

We need to calculate the perimeter. As there are 8 sides (8)(15.31) = 122.48
Now we need to calculate the apothem using

a = S / (2 tan (180 / n)
a = 15.31 / (2 tan (180 / 8))
a = 18.48

Now solve for the area

Area = ap/2
Area = (18.48)(122.48)/2
Area = 1131.72

perimeter = 122.48
area = 1131.72

Gianna is preparing for the upcoming tennis season. According to her schedule, she can complete at most 10 workouts this week. I
Fantom [35]
For this case we have the following variables:
 x = the number of drill-based workouts
 y = the number of conditioning workouts
 The system of equations that adapts to the situation is:
 "According to her schedule, she can complete at most 10 workouts this week":
 x + y <= 10
 "It takes Gianna 45 minutes to complete her drill-based workouts and 30 minutes to complete her conditioning workouts. She is required to spend more than 450 minutes on workouts every week"
 45x + 30y> 450
 Answer:
 
A system of inequalities can that be used is:
 
x + y <= 10
 
45x + 30y> 450
