Question

The vertices of a quadrilateral ABCD are A(1, –3), B(4, –3), C(4, –5), and D(–1, –5). The vertices of another quadrilateral EFCD are E(1, –7), F(4, –7), C(4, –5), and D(–1, –5). Which conclusion is true about the quadrilaterals?
-The ratio of their corresponding sides is not equal.
-The measures of the corresponding angles are different.
-The shape of the quadrilaterals is same but their areas are different.
-The angles and sides overlap when one quadrilateral is placed on the other.

Answer 2

You have to draw the point and calculate the length of the horizontal and vertical lines..
You'll notice that the length both of the longest horizontal lines are equal as well as both of the shortest horizontal lines.. This goes for the vertical lines as well.. Because all of these are equal, you do not have to calculate the diagonal line because these will, obviously, be equal to each other as well.. The only difference between the two is the fact that one is flipped.

Answer 3

yea while you were gone, I plot the points on a grid, and htey were both the exact same..the thing is I cant deicide if wether its c

Answer 4

no it's d... it says nothing about not being allowed to flip the shapes.. B indicates that one of the shapes are bigger but because the vertical and horizontal lines are equal, the area is as well

Answer 5

I was afraid saying it was D, since i didnt see them overlaping..but looking at it sgain, it makes more sense than the other ones ;)

Answer 6

thanx so much!

Answer 7

the ratio between the sides are equal because the sides are equal and because of that, the angels are equal as well.. in fact, the shapes are completely equal to each other besides the fact that they are flipped.. things like these should just be drawn out which makes it incredibly easy to check the figure.. and your welcome :)
