AC=2AE ( because diagonal of rhombus bisect each others)

AE=8 cot 53°

AE=6

AC=2 x 6 = 12

Hence, The length of AC is 12

Answer:

The length of AC is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to find measure of AC

Since, diagonal of rhombus bisect each others at 90°

AC = 2AE

In ΔAEB

Since, $cot\theta=\frac{base}{perpendicular}$

$cot53=\frac{AE}{EB}$

Since AE =EB = 8

$cot53=\frac{AE}{8}$

Multiply both the sides by 8,

AE = 8 cot 53°

AE = 8 * 0.75

AE = 6

so,

AC=2 x AE

AC=2 x 6

AC= 12

Hence, The length of AC is 12

Well first you times the 0.3 to w and 10 which will give you 0.3w + 3 = 1.8w and subtracting 1.8 from 0.3 gives you
1.5w=3 and that is divided to w=2

The set of points (-3, 4), (-1, 1), (-3,-2), and (-5,1) identifies the vertices of a quadrilateral. Which is the most specific d

KIM [24]

Answer:

Option (4). Rhombus

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Distance AB = $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2}$

= $\sqrt{(1-4)^2+(-5+3)^2}$

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

= $\sqrt{13}$

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

= $\sqrt{9+4}$

= $\sqrt{13}$

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

= $\sqrt{9+4}$

= $\sqrt{13}$

Distance AD = $\sqrt{(1+2)^2+(-5+3)^2}$

= $\sqrt{9+4}$

= $\sqrt{13}$

Slope of AB ( $m_{1}$ ) = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

= $\frac{4-1}{-3+5}$

= $\frac{3}{2}$

Slope of BC ( $m_{2}$ ) = $\frac{4-1}{-3+1}$

= $-\frac{3}{2}$

If AB and BC are perpendicular then,

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

But it's not true.

[ $m_{1}\times m_{2}=(\frac{3}{2})(-\frac{3}{2})$ = - $\frac{9}{4}$ ]

It shows that the consecutive sides of the quadrilateral are not perpendicular.

Therefore, ABCD is neither square nor a rectangle.

Slope of diagonal BD = $\frac{4+2}{-3+3}$

= Not defined (parallel to y-axis)

Slope of diagonal AC = $\frac{1-1}{-1+5}$

= 0 [parallel to x-axis]

Therefore, both the diagonals AC and BD will be perpendicular.

And the quadrilateral formed by the given points will be a rhombus.

If a Netflix subscription costs $8.99 per month, how much will you have spent after having it for 2 years? Explain how you got y

natali 33 [55]

You would multiply 8.99x12 so thats 107.88
Then you multiply that by 2 so 107.88x2=$215.76

Hope this helped have an amazing day and god bless :))
