Answer:

Dimensions are 12 , 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangular mural = length * width

length * width = 60 square feet

(x + 10)(x + 3) = 60

Use FOIL method

x*x + x*3 + 10*x + 10*3 = 60

x² + <u>3x + 10x</u> + 30 = 60      {Combine like terms}

x² +<u> 13x</u> + 30 - 60 = 0

x² + 13x - 30 = 0

Sum = 13

Product = -30

Factors =  15 , -2     (15+ (-2) = 13 ; 15*(-2) = -30)

x² + 15x - 2x - 30 =0  {Rewrite middle terms}

x(x + 15) - 2(x + 15) = 0

(x + 15)(x - 2) =0

x - 2 = 0             {Ignore (x +15) as dimensions wont have a negative value}

x = 2

x + 10 = 2 + 10 = 12

x + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5

Dimensions are 12 , 5

Determine whether quadrilateral ABCD is a rhombus, a rectangle, a square, a parallelogram, or none. List all that apply. Explain
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

  • ABCD is a rhombus, and a parallelogram

==================================

<h3>Given </h3>

  • Points A(-6, - 1), B(4, - 6), C(2, 5), D(- 8, 10)

First, plot the points (see attached picture).

Then, connect all the points.

<h3>We see that:</h3>

  • Opposite sides are parallel,
  • Diagonals are perpendicular.

From our observation the figure is rhombus.

Let's confirm it with the following.

1) Find midpoints of diagonals and compare.

  • AC → x = (- 6 + 2)/2 = - 2, y = (- 1 + 5)/2 = 2
  • BD → x = (4 - 8)/2 = - 2, y = (- 6 + 10)/2 = 2

The midpoint of both diagonals is same (- 2, 2).

2) Find slopes of diagonals and check if their product is -1, this will confirm they are perpendicular.

  • m(AC) = (5 - (-1))/(2 - (-6)) = 6/8 = 3/4
  • m(BD) = (10 - (-6))/(-8 - 4) = - 16/12 = - 4/3

  • m(AC) × m(BD) = 3/4 * (- 4/3) = - 1

<u>Confirmed.</u>

So this is a rhombus and also a parallelogram but <u>not</u> rectangle or square, since opposite angles are not right angles.
