Given:

Vertices of a parallelogram ABCD are A(7,-4), B(-1,-4), C(-1,-12), D(7, -12).

To find:

Whether the parallelogram ABCD is a rhombus, rectangle or square.

Solution:

Distance formula:

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Using distance formula, we get

AB=\sqrt{(-4-(-4))^2+(-1-7)^2}

AB=\sqrt{(-4+4)^2+(-8)^2}

AB=\sqrt{0+64}

AB=8

Similarly,

BC=\sqrt{(-1-(-1))^2+(12-(-4))^2}=8

CD=\sqrt{(7-(-1))^2+(-12-(-12))^2}=8

AD=\sqrt{(7-7)^2+(-12-(-4))^2}=8

All sides of parallelogram are equal.

AC=\sqrt{(-1-7)^2+(-12-(-4))^2}=8\sqrt{2}

BD=\sqrt{(7-(-1))^2+(-12-(-4))^2}=8\sqrt{2}

Both diagonals are equal.

Since, all sides are equal and both diagonals are equal, therefore, the parallelogram ABCD is a square.

We know that, a square is special case of rectangles and rhombus.

So, parallelogram ABCD is a rhombus, rectangle or square. Therefore, the correct option is c.

An equilateral triangle has a perimeter of 15x3 + 33x5 feet. What is the length of each side?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

So I assumed that the x was multiplication...so...15x3=45 and 33x5=165...so the perimeter is 210, so you divide that by 3 and the answer is 70!
