Select the length that will be used in the calculation of its perimeter.


Sagot :

Answer:

A - Rectangle B - Square

C - Parallelogram D - Rhombus

Explanation:

We are given

A

(

1

,

2

)

,

B

(

2

,

2

)

and hence

A

B

=

(

2

1

)

2

+

(

2

2

)

2

=

17

. Further slope of

A

B

is

2

2

2

=

=

.

Case A -

C

(

,

D

As

=

and slope of

C

D

is

=

=

As

A

B

=

C

D

and

A

B

||

C

D

slopes being equal, ABCD is a parallelogram.

graph{((x-1)^2+(y-2)^2-0.08)((x-2)^2+(y+2)^2-0.08)((x+6)^2+(y+4)^2-0.08)((x+7)^2+y^2-0.08)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Case B -

Further,

)

2

=

and slope of

is

2

=

As

B

C

=

A

B

and they are perpendicular (as product of slopes is

1

), ABCD is a square.

graph{((x-1)^2+(y-2)^2-0.08)((x-2)^2+(y+2)^2-0.08)((x-6)^2+(y+1)^2-0.08)((x-5)^2+(y-3)^2-0.08)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Case C -

C

(

,

D

(

As mid point of

A

C

is

(

)

i.e.

(

and midpoint of

B

is

(

2

,

2

+

0

2

i.e.

(

0

,

1

)

i.e. midpoints of

A

C

and

B

are same,

but,

B

C

=

)

2

i.e.

A

and hence ABCD is a parallelogram.

graph{((x-1)^2+(y-2)^2-0.08)((x-2)^2+(y+2)^2-0.08)((x+1)^2+(y+4)^2-0.08)((x+2)^2+y^2-0.08)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Case D -

i.e.

(

i.e.

and hence ABCD is a rhombus.

graph{((x-1)^2+(y-2)^2-0.08)((x-2)^2+(y+2)^2-0.08)((x-1)^2+(y+6)^2-0.08)(x^2+(y+2)^2-0.08)=0 [-14, 14, -7, 7]}
