When the coordinates (2, 3), (4, 4), (6, 3), and (4, 2) are joined, which shape is formed? Parallelogram Rectangle Rhombus Square

@aum

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you give me the points?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is hard for me

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

It's really easy. All you have to do is plot them on a graph:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know how to use the slope formula but idk what points to input

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i graphed it earlier

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey aum :)

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Now you have your shape:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just need to know the points i gotta input in the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but idk what kind of shape that is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its either a paralleogram or a rhombus

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

(2, 3), (4, 4), (6, 3), and (4, 2) . Really? What grade is this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thinks its a parallelogram

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10th

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

What equation are you talking about?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y2 - y1 over x2-x1

OpenStudy (aum):

Yes @NinjaDevo has provided a nice plot when you posted it before. Look at the opposite sides. Slope = rise / run. (that is, difference in y / difference in x) Are the slopes of the opposite sides the same?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here's that graph again if it helps

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its a rhombus because everything is parallel and congruent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it a rhombus?

OpenStudy (aum):

Yes. But you should not guess. You should prove to yourself the opposite sides are parallel and all sides are of equal length and therefore it is a rhombus.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i know that bcuz not all problems will be set up as easy as this one thanks aum thanks yana thanks ninja

OpenStudy (aum):

You are welcome.

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

No problem:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have one more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um

OpenStudy (anonymous):

new post?

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Yes. Go ahead:D
