Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line characterizes the direction of a line. To find the slope, you divide the difference of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of those same 2 points.

slope of a line

Different words, same formula

Teachers use different words for the y-coordinates and the the x-coordinates.

Some call the y-coordinates the rise and the x-coordinates the run.

Others prefer to use Δ notation and call the y-coordinates Δy , and the x-coordinates the Δx .

slope of a line

These words all mean the same thing, which is that the y values are on the top of the formula (numerator) and the x values are on the bottom of the formula (denominator)!

slope of a line

Example One

The slope of a line going through the point (1, 2) and the point (4, 3) is 13.

Remember: difference in the y values goes in the numerator of formula, and the difference in the x values goes in denominator of the formula.

Identify the polygon with vertices A(5,0), B(2,4), C(−2,1), and D(1,−3), and then find the perimeter and area of the polygon. HE

inn [45]

Answer:

Part 1) The polygon is a square

Part 2) The perimeter is equal to $20\ units$

Part 3) The area is equal to $25\ units^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$A(5,0), B(2,4), C(-2,1),D(1,-3)$

Plot the points

see the attached figure

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

Find the distance AB

$A(5,0),B(2,4)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(4-0)^{2}+(2-5)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(-3)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$AB=5\ units$

Find the distance BC

$B(2,4), C(-2,1)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(1-4)^{2}+(-2-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$BC=5\ units$

Find the distance CD

$C(-2,1),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-1)^{2}+(1+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-4)^{2}+(3)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$CD=5\ units$

Find the distance AD

$A(5,0),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-0)^{2}+(1-5)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$AD=5\ units$

we have that

AB=BC=CD=AD

Find the distance BD (diagonal)

$B(2,4),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-4)^{2}+(1-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-7)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$BD=\sqrt{50}\ units$

Verify if the polygon is a square

If the triangle BDA is a right triangle, then the polygon is a square

Applying the Pythagoras theorem

$BD^{2}=AD^{2}+AB^{2}$

substitute

$(\sqrt{50})^{2}=5^{2}+5^{2}$

$50=50$ -----> is true

The triangle BDA is a right triangle

therefore

The polygon is a square

Find the Area of the polygon

The area of a square is equal to

$A=b^{2}$

we have

$b=5\ units$

$A=5^{2}=25\ units^{2}$

Find the perimeter of the polygon

The perimeter of a square is equal to

$P=4b$

we have

$b=5\ units$

$P=4(5)=20\ units$

The mean and standard deviation when presenting results?

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Standard deviation is a number used to tell how measurements for a group are spread out from the average (mean), or expected value. A low standard deviation means that most of the numbers are close to the average. A high standard deviation means that the numbers are more spread out.

Answer:

5. 43.98 (if not rounding pi, if rounding pi it is 43.96)

6. 201.06 (if not rounding pi, if rounding pi it is 200.96)

7. 72.8

8. 84

9. 3.6

10. 140

11. C

12. 12.6

Step-by-step explanation:

5. C=2*pi*r

6. A=pi*r^2

7. angles in triangle must add up to 180

8. A=bh

9. radius is half of diameter

10. A=(hb)b/2
