Answer:

400 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum area of a rectangle results from it being a square. The rectangle (or square) must have 4 equal sides in order to maximize area. But in this case, one side is a wall. That means that the remaining three sides will be = 60 / 3 = 20 feet long. You formed an square that is 20 ft x 20 ft = 400 ft²

Which points are on the perpendicular bisector of the given segment? Check all that apply. Please explain how you got your answe
ser-zykov [4K]
First, you have to find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of this given line. 
to do that, you need the slope of the perpendicular line and one point.
Step 1: find the slope of the given line segment. We have the two end points (10, 15) and (-20, 5), so the slope is m=(15-5)/(10-(-20))=1/3
the slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line, m=-3/1=-3 
step 2: find the middle point: x=(-20+10)/2=-5, y=(15+5)/2=10      (-5, 10)
so the equation of the perpendicular line in point-slope form is (y-10)=-3(x+5)

now plug in all the given coordinates to the equation to see which pair fits:
(-8, 19): 19-10=9, -3(-8+5)=9, so yes, (-8, 19) is on the perpendicular line. 

try the other pairs, you will find that (1,-8) and (-5, 10) fit the equation too. (-5,10) happens to be the midpoint.
