Answer:
(a) (-2, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The orthocenter is the point of concurrence of the altitudes of the triangle.
A plot of the triangle vertices shows the triangle to be acute. That means the orthocenter is inside. This eliminates choices B, C, D, which are all points outside the triangle.
__
Conveniently, side LM is horizontal. This means the orthocenter will have the x-coordinate of the vertical line through N, which is -2. Only one answer choice has an x-coordinate of -2:
a (-2, 4)
(-6,-4)
If you dilate a point, (c,d) about (a,b) by a scale factor by k. You'll going to subtract each coordinates where the point will be dilated about (a,b) from the point (c,d) and then multiply them by k. This would be the formula if you want: (k(c -a), k(b -d))
Let's say F is the dilation of D about the origin or (0,0) then the x coordinate of F would be

This would be the y coordinate of F:

Thus the coordinates of F is (-6,-4)
The answer is F.) 0= x^2 - 15x + 54
Answer: 6
Explanation
If we divide our figure into six, we get the following figure:
As we can see, we are left with 6 equal parts. This can be confirmed by solving the equation:
