Symmetry signifies balance and form. An object with rotational symmetry will still look the same after a rotation. Since it maintains its shape and figure after being rotated, therefore its characteristics such as length of the diagonals, the angles of each corner, or parallelism of opposite sides will remain the same.

Question 1

arlik [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be done without the Distance Formula (which is a way to find the distance between any two points in the plane).

The attached image shows the points and segments joining them.

PQ = 5 because the points are on the same horizontal line, and you can count spaces between them (or subtract x-coordinates: 4 - (-1) = 5).

PR = 12 because the points are on the same vertical line; count spaces or subtract y-coordinates, 7 - (-5) = 12.

The triangle is a right triangle, so the Pythagorean Theorem can be used to find the length of the hypotenuse.

$(\text{leg})^2+(\text{leg})^2=(\text{hypotenuse})^2$

$(QR)^2=5^2+12^2=25+144=169\\QR=\sqrt{169}=13$

The perimeter of the triangle is 5 + 12 + 13 = 30
