Prove that the quadrilateral whose vertices are I(-2,3), J(2,6), K(7,6), and L(3, 3) is a rhombus.
I think in these problems the first step is to express each side as a vector. A vector is the difference between points. When two sides have the same vector (or negatives) it means they're parallel and congruent. So in a rhombus IJKL the vectors IJ and LK should be the same, as should JK and IL. That much assures a parallelogram; we check IJ and JK are congruent to complete the crowing of the rhombus.
Let's calculate these vectors:
IJ = J - I = (2,6) - (-2,3) = (2 - -2, 6 - 3) = (4, 3)
LK = K - L = (7, 6) - (3, 3) = (4, 3)
IJ = LK, so far so good
(Note: If you haven't got to vectors yet you can just show the two sides are the same length, 5, and have the same slope, 3/4, both of which can be read off the vectors.)
JK = K - J = (7,6) - (2,6) = (5,0)
IL = L - I = (3, 3) - (-2, 3) = (5, 0)
Those are the same too.
Now we have to show IJ ≅ JK
The length of IJ is the cliche √4²+3² = 5, the same as JK, so IJ ≅ JK
We showed all four sides are congruent and we have two pair of parallel sides, so we have a rhombus.
Step-by-step explanation:
To compute the area of the outer dark gray strip, you'll need to know the dimensions of the inner light gray strip. Since the inner strip has a width of 1 inch on all sides, you can subtract 2 inches from both the length and width of the outer frame to find the dimensions of the inner strip.
Let's denote the length of the inner strip as L inches and the width as W inches. Then, the dimensions of the outer frame would be (L + 2) inches for the length and (W + 2) inches for the width.
Since the area of the inner light gray strip is 100 square inches, you can set up an equation:
L * W = 100
Now, you can find the area of the outer dark gray strip:
Outer strip area = (L + 2) * (W + 2) - L * W
Substitute the value of L * W from the equation above:
Outer strip area = (L + 2) * (W + 2) - 100
You'll need the specific values of L and W to calculate the exact area of the outer dark gray strip.
Answer:
121
Step-by-step explanation:
the square root of 100 is 10
width is 1 inch
so the length of outside is 11inch
11^2=121
