someone?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@tmoneycash3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are all the sides the same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can't find the work that i did anywhere...... @tmoneycash3

@jadeybells

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll help ya :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank u!!!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep, this is pretty simple once you have it down >.<

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, let me figure out how to graph this so I can show you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok..... how?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do u want me to graph the points and post them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nono, I figured it out :) I'll show you in a minute or two :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok :)

OpenStudy (vlery):

rhombus

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how and why?

OpenStudy (vlery):

first: do you have a ti83 or 84 calculator?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jadeybells can u explain and help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Kay >.< So this is what it looks like when it's graphed, hopefully the link works

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there isn't anything

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@goformit100

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Really?! Dang it! Well, it's not a square, nor is it a rectangle. A rhombus? Psh, no. Lol a parallelogram, more like it. The reason being, it's slanted, with diagnol sides, and two sides match, similar to a rectangle. Not sure how to explain it in depth

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u prove it?

OpenStudy (vlery):

she's right my bad I got rhombus and parallelogram confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

prove it? Well, graph the coordinates for yourself, on the link graphpaper, that actually is really helpful, then you'll see what I mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

parallelogram, because opposite sides are congruent and adjacent sides are not perpendicular

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it this?

OpenStudy (vlery):

sure if you need to explain why

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, let's see what Dan's going to say..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can i ask another one i have the answer i just wanna make sure that its right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The following set of coordinates represents which figure?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(3, -5), (5, -2), (10, -4), (8, -7)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol those are the same coordinates as before

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got rectangle

OpenStudy (dan815):

Yes rectangle most likely

OpenStudy (dan815):

you can confirm if they have 90 degree angles between the edges

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is rectangle correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i also have as an answer choice square parallelogram rhombus

OpenStudy (dan815):

popcorn try to prove it yourself.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got it wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ill prove iy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*it

OpenStudy (dan815):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx

OpenStudy (dan815):

connect the dots and see, if there is a 90 degree angle separating all edges its a rectangle otherwise its not

OpenStudy (dan815):

If the opposite sides are parallel still then its a parallelogram, and so on keep checking for other possibilities if that fails. DO SOME WORK BOY :)
