Question

Parallelogram FGHI on the coordinate plane below represents the drawing of a horse trail through a local park:

Quadrilateral FGHI is shown on the coordinate plane with coordinates F at negative 6, 6. G at negative 2, 6. H at negative 4, 3. and I negative 8, 3. Point A is at 0, 4 and point D is at negative 6, negative 5.

In order to build a scale model of the trail, the drawing is enlarged on the coordinate plane. If two corners of the trail are at point A(0, 4) and point D(−6, −5), what is another point that could represent a corner of the trail?

(9, −5)
(6, −5)
(12, −5)
(3, −5

Answer 2

Okay so this is a multi choice as well. So tell me whats your thoughts on this question?

Answer 3

I'm thinking it might be B or C but I'm not sure

Answer 4

Okay what I'll do is do solve the answer myself but show the steps I took.

Answer 5

hmmm i just solved it but its not a answer choice huh

Answer 6

Ah!

Answer 7

I almost positive its C! But my digit is 1 number off.

Answer 8

Is there something missing from the question maybe?

Answer 9

Nevermind its B! Im 100% positive this time. my bad i scaled wrong

Answer 10

so here is my work,

If there is the 2 points i can work out the base length by
x2 - x1
7 - 3
= 4
so side a of the triangle above= 4

then side b
y2 - y1
3 - 0
=3
so side b = 3

so h^2 = a^2 + b^2
h^2 = 4^2 + 3^2
h^2 = 16 + 9
h^2 = 25
so h = 5

Answer 11

and the other side is 6 i was getting 12 last time sorry about that
