Show by using slope that the figure with vertices A(-5, -2), B(-4, 2), C(4, 5), and D(3, 1) is a parallelogram. Slope of AB = Slope of CD = Slope of BC = Slope of AD =

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

What's the slope formula?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m1m2=-1 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what do i do??

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Find the slope obviously. lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-.-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

For AB, \[Slope=\frac{2-(-2)}{-4-(-5)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0/3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait wait noo

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Lol. 2-(-2) = 2+2 = 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

waittt..... but--> 2-(-2) changes negative to positive two?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the minus sign doesnt change.. or does it?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Yes it does, - times - equals +.

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

So, 2-(-2) = 2+2 = 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-.-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

totallyforgot. thanks

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

No worries. ^_^
