OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you try plugging the points?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use the midpoint t formula actually

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why do you need to use the midpoint formula?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to find diagnals to make it easier but it might work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't you just graph it, then you would know that it is a diamond, and then calculate the area and the perimeter?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yea sorry for that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i'm sorry i was a little confused and i wasn't sure if i was right or not...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait so wouldn't it be a square? or a rhombus?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I already drew it, now I need to find the slop points and the distance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it can be characterized asa diamond, a rhombus, or a square

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the area is just \((3 \sqrt{2})^2\) and the perimeter is just \(4*3 \sqrt{2}\)... i am soooo confused by you @mathaddict4471 lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But my teacher said its either a rhombus square of diamond can't be all?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh sorry, it's not a rhombus, it's a square and a diamond. a diamond is characterized by 4 equal sides, which this graph has. a square is characterized by 4 equal sides AND 4 stright angles, which this one also has.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright thank you. And what did you get for the slopes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what slopes? was that a part of the problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, well its a way to show your work. To find the slopes and distances? of the points.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Also all the angles are 90 degrees right on the square?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. the slopes are 1 and -1 and the distances are \(3\sqrt{2}\) and the angles are 90degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright thank you!!! @johnny0929

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you help me with one more like this one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can post it in a new question because I actually have another class coming up. I'm sure others can help you as well! I will be on later tonight as well.
