The graph opens downward, so the vertex is the maximum point of the parabola. Example: The vertex of the parabola y = -(x + 9)2 + 4 is (-9, 4). The graph opens downward, so the vertex is the maximum point of the parabola.
...
If the value of "a" is positive, the parabola will open upward.
Answer is 12.73
Use Pythagorean theory
Split square into two right triangles with diagonal line. To find the diagonal
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
9^2 + 9^2 = c^2
162= c^2
Take square root of both sides
12.73 = c
Answer: 80
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the formula
, where
are the lengths of the diagonals.
By the distance formula,

So, the area is
