The coordinates of the vertices of quadrilateral JKLM are J(−3, 2) , K(3, 5) , L(9, −1) , and M(2, −3) . Which statement correctly describes whether quadrilateral JKLM is a rhombus? A. Quadrilateral JKLM is not a rhombus because there are no pairs of parallel sides. B. Quadrilateral JKLM is a rhombus because opposite sides are parallel and all four sides have the same length. C. Quadrilateral JKLM is not a rhombus because there is only one pair of opposite sides that are parallel. D. Quadrilateral JKLM is not a rhombus because opposite sides are parallel but the four sides do not all have the same length.

jasonmitchell:

I think it would be B don't you agree

Cupcake123456:

YUPPP!!

jasonmitchell:

would you think 563 ?

563blackghost:

I would disagree. Did you find the slope of each side?

563blackghost:

Its crucial to not assume and check your answer is every possible way, if you plug in the slopes for this problem you will see that one pair of opposite sides do infact meet meaning that they are not parallel. https://www.desmos.com/calculator/rfhupwaebd

https://us-static.z-dn.net/files/d9c/cd199d009914ec96c84c2d17097b841d.jpeg does it look like a rhombus ?

Cupcake123456:

@563blackghost u sure

Cupcake123456:

and yes ! thats what i was looking at to..

jasonmitchell:

Quadrilateral JKLM is not a rhombus because there is only one pair of opposite sides that are parallel.

563blackghost:

im completely sure, a rhombus has two parallel pairs that are opposite of each other, and will contain the same length on all sides.

Cupcake123456:

Cupcake123456:

does it have four equal-length sides? does it have two-pairs of parallel sides? if it does, then is a rhombus, if not, no dice.

563blackghost:

i can have someone double check if youd like @jasonmitchell

jasonmitchell:

WELL I THINK IT'S Quadrilateral JKLM is not a rhombus because there is only one pair of opposite sides that are parallel.

jasonmitchell:

am i correct

563blackghost:

um @Cupcake123456 , @jasonmitchell question has points `(-3,2) (3,5) (9,-1) and (2,-3)` i dun see any point of `(9,-1)` here >.>

Cupcake123456:

my b i was off !

563blackghost:

yes you are jason

Cupcake123456:

ITS B !

563blackghost:

It is C. I found another person who asked the same question who says it is C too for double checking. https://brainly.com/question/7198958

Cupcake123456:

might bb wrong tho idk

Cupcake123456:

brainly.com/question/6594458

Cupcake123456:

says B

563blackghost:

Im pretty sure its right, ive been doing geometry for nearly 6 years now, i wouldnt be helping if i didnt know what i was doing. @Shadow @zarkam21 or @Ultrilliam can you double check for me.

jasonmitchell:

right i get it

jasonmitchell:

you're probably right

563blackghost:

@Hero can you double check pls, so no one has doubts?

Hero:

Did you graph the coordinates?
