D is halfway between A and B
so the coordinates of D are (2,2)
E is halfway between A and C so the coordinates of E are (-1,1)
now you need to find the gradient/slope of DE and BC using the formula:

<h3>
<u>G</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>i</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>f</u><u> </u><u>D</u><u>E</u><u>:</u><u> </u></h3>
SUB IN COORDINATES OF D AND E

therefore the gradient of DE is 1/3.
<h3>
<u>G</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>i</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>f</u><u> </u><u>B</u><u>C</u><u>:</u></h3>
<em>S</em><em>U</em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>I</em><em>N</em><em> </em><em>C</em><em>O</em><em>O</em><em>R</em><em>D</em><em>I</em><em>N</em><em>A</em><em>T</em><em>E</em><em>S</em><em> </em><em>O</em><em>F</em><em> </em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>A</em><em>N</em><em>D</em><em> </em><em>C</em>
<em>
</em>
therefore the gradient of BC is -2/-6 which simplifies to 1/3.
<h3>
therefore, BC and DE are parallel as they both have a gradient/slope of 1/3 and parallel lines have the same gradient</h3>

Answer:
12 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Alyssa takes part in the triathlon. She cycles 4/5 of the route, runs 1/8 of the route, and swims the rest of the way. She swims 0.9 miles. Find the total distance of the triathlon route.
Total distance Alyssa cycled and ran =

=
Distance she swam = 1 - 37/40 = 3/40
3/40 of the distance is 0.9
the total distance = 40/3 x 0.9 = 12 miles
