Find the lengths of the segments with variable expressions

Mathematics
1 answer:
nlexa [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

EF = 7 units

AD =  3 units

BC =  11 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is an isosceles trapezoid and the midsegment is x, the sum of the bases divided by 1/2 is the value of the midsegment, x.

x = 1/2(x-4 + 2x-3)

x = 1/2x - 2 + x - 1 1/2

x = 1 1/2 x - 3.5

-1/2 x = -3.5

x = 7 units

EF = 7 units

AD = 7-4 = 3 units

BC = 2(7) - 3 = 11 units

Which best describes the graphs of the line that passes through (−12, 15) and (4, −5), and the line that passes through (−8, −9)
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

C) They are perpendicular lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find the slope of the graph of the lines passing through these points using:

m =  \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The slope of the line that passes through (−12, 15) and (4, −5) is

m_{1} =  \frac{ - 5 - 15}{4 -  - 12}

m_{1} =  \frac{ - 20}{16}  =  -  \frac{5}{4}

The slope of the line going through (−8, −9) and (16, 21) is

m_{2} =  \frac{21 -  - 9}{16 -  - 8}

m_{2} =  \frac{21  + 9}{16  + 8}

m_{2} =  \frac{30}{24}  =  \frac{5}{4}

The product of the two slopes is

m_{1} \times m_{2} =  -  \frac{4}{5}  \times  \frac{5}{4}  =  - 1

Since

m_{1} \times m_{2} =  - 1

the two lines are perpendicular.
