Rule: The diagonals of any parallelogram bisect each other. In other words, they cut each other in half.
This means DF is cut into two equal pieces: DH and HF.
Similarly, GE is cut into two equal pieces: GH and HE.
DH = HF
x+5 = 2y
x = 2y-5
GH = HE
4x-3 = 4y+1
4(x)-3 = 4y+1
4(2y-5)-3 = 4y+1 ... x has been replaced with 2y-5
8y-20-3 = 4y+1
8y-23 = 4y+1
8y-4y = 1+23
4y = 24
y = 6
If y = 6, then x is
x = 2y-5
x = 2(6)-5
x = 12-5
x = 7

Answers:
x = 7 and y = 6
Answer:
x=-15, y=25. (-15, 25).
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3y=45
x+y=10
--------------
x=10-y
2(10-y)+3y=45
20-2y+3y=45
20+y=45
y=45-20
y=25
x+25=10
x=10-25
x=-15
Answer:
D because the BC is the radius line
Answer:
y = -2x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Passes through point (1, 3)
Perpendicular to x – 2y = -8
Solve:
x – 2y = -8
y = 1/2x + 4
The slope is m = 1/2
The slope of the perpendicular line is the inverse of the slope of the original equation.
The slope of the inverse equation is m = -2.
Making an inverse equation of y = -2x + a
Find a:
Use point, (1, 3) where (x, y):
3 = (-2)*(1) + a
a = 5
y = -2x + 5
