For Andrea:

For Justin:

For Virginia:

On subtracting equations (i) and (ii), we get

Put
in equation (i)

Put
in equation (iii)

Multiply equation (iv) by 5 and equation (v) by 6 and then subtract both the equations.

Put
in equation 

Put
in equation (i)

Negative 1 because 3 x 3 is 9 and -2 x 5 is -10. Therefore 9-10= negative 1
Answer:
Area = 33 inches squared
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a kite is:
Area = ½ × (d)1 × (d)2
To find the first diagonal (d1):
d1 = 7 in + 4 in = 11 in
To find the second diagonal (d2):
The triangles on the right of the kite must be 3 4 5 triangle since it is a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 5 and a side of 4, we know half of a diagonal would be 3 inches.
d2 = 3 in + 3 in = 6 in
Now we can plug the diagonals into the area formula.
Area = ½ × 11 × 6 = 33 inches squared
First we need slope


Put D co-ordinates on y=mx+b




Now
slope intercept form.
