A rhombus is a four-sided figure with all sides the same length.
Points F(22, 22), G(22, 3), and H(2, 6) are three vertices of
rhombus FGHJ. Vertex J is directly below vertex H.
a. Graph rhombus FGHJ. Label J with its coordinates.
b. What is the perimeter of the rhombus? Show your work.


Sagot :

The perimeter of the rhombus FGHJ is 20 units

How to graph the rhombus

The coordinates are given as:

F = (-2, -2)

G = (-2, 3)

H = (2, 6)

From the question, we understand that vertex J is directly below vertex H.

This means that vertices H and J have the same x coordinate.

So, we have

J = (2, y)

The distance between F and G is 5 units,

So, we have

J = (2, y - 5)

Where

y = 6 i.e. the y coordinate of H

This gives

J = (2, 6 - 5)

Evaluate

J = (2, 1)

See attachment for the graph of the rhombus

The perimeter

In (a), we have:

The distance between F and G is 5 units,

This means that

FG = 5

The side lengths of a rhombus are equal.

So, the perimeter is

P = 4 * FG

This gives

P =4 * 5

Evaluate

P = 20

Hence, the perimeter of the rhombus is 20 units
