Parallelogram Rectangle Rhombus Square

OpenStudy (kiiraa_x3):

Find the value of 533 using the identity (x + y)3 = x3 + 3x2y + 3xy2 + y3. Hint: 533 = (50 + 3)3; therefore, x = 50 and y = 3.

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

have you tried plotting them?

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

https://www.desmos.com/calculator

OpenStudy (christina166):

Yes but it looks like a rectangle, square

OpenStudy (christina166):

And the choices are Parallelogram Rectangle Rhombus Square

Directrix (directrix):

The point plot can be deceiving. I think it would be wise to crank out side lengths.

OpenStudy (christina166):

So it would be a square

OpenStudy (christina166):

If its ok with you can you also help me with this one; Barry is trying to calculate the distance between point E(3, 1) and point F(4, 7). Which of the following expressions will he use? square root of the quantity of 7 minus 1 all squared plus 4 minus 3 all squared square root of the quantity of 7 minus 3 all squared plus 4 minus 1 all squared square root of the quantity of 7 minus 4 all squared plus 3 minus 1 all squared square root of the quantity of 4 minus 7 all squared plus 1 minus 3 all squared

Directrix (directrix):

The polygon is equilateral with each side being sqrt(13). It might be a rhombus. So, we will find the slope of two intersecting sides.

OpenStudy (christina166):

Oh it looked like a square ok so the calculation of a slope is y2-y1/x2-x1

Directrix (directrix):

There is a neat distance between 2 points calculator online here: http://www.mathportal.org/calculators/analytic-geometry/distance-and-midpoint-calculator.php You may find it useful.

OpenStudy (christina166):

Oh yes it is !!!

OpenStudy (christina166):

So it is a rhombus

Directrix (directrix):

It is a rhombus and more. The slopes of two of the adjacent sides are negative reciprocals. 2/3 times - 3/2 = -1. That means that the sides are perpendicular. A quadrilateral that is both equilateral and equiangular is a square.

OpenStudy (christina166):

ohhh So it could also be a square but I think Im leaning toward rhombus

Directrix (directrix):

Be clear on this. The given coordinates can represent every one of these: Parallelogram Rectangle Rhombus Square I assume that you are to select the most restrictive answer. If so, that would be Square.

Directrix (directrix):

A square is a rhombus. A square is a special rhombus in which the interior angles are right angles.

OpenStudy (christina166):

Oh ok Yes I will be more clear sorry and THANK YOU so much!! Do you think you can help me with one more problem

Directrix (directrix):

To be a rhombus, all 4 sides have to be the same. That is true of a square so a square is a rhombus, a special kind of rhombus.

OpenStudy (christina166):

ohhhhhh ok

Directrix (directrix):

There is an online slope of line determined by two points calculator over here if you ever need it. http://www.webmath.com/equline1.html

OpenStudy (christina166):

ok thanks ill keep that in mind!! Can u help me with one more I don't get sorry if im bothering you. Barry is trying to calculate the distance between point E(3, 1) and point F(4, 7). Which of the following expressions will he use? square root of the quantity of 7 minus 1 all squared plus 4 minus 3 all squared square root of the quantity of 7 minus 3 all squared plus 4 minus 1 all squared square root of the quantity of 7 minus 4 all squared plus 3 minus 1 all squared square root of the quantity of 4 minus 7 all squared plus 1 minus 3 all squared

Directrix (directrix):

You'll need to use the distance formula by hand on this one.

Directrix (directrix):

See what you can do with that, okay?

OpenStudy (christina166):

ok thanks!!!!

OpenStudy (christina166):

ok so I got d= square root of 37

Directrix (directrix):

That is not the task here. Look at the answer options.

OpenStudy (christina166):

OH WAIT I DIDNT HAVE TO SOLVE IT UGH LOL

OpenStudy (christina166):

wait their answer choices are wrong cause I got|dw:1450411893591:dw|
