#1
Given :
- Segment PN = 195 ft
- Segment MN = 360 ft
To find :
Solution :
we know that diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other,
hence,
- Segment LN = 2 x Segment PN = 195ft x 2 = 390ft
Since , diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length,
hence,
- Measure segment MO = Measure segment LN
- Measure segment MO = 390ft
Therefore,the measure of segment MO would be 390ft
#2
Trapezoid is not a parallelogram.
- Trapezoid has only one pair of parallel side and hence, it's not a parallelogram.
- A parallelogram is a shape of 4 sides with two pairs of parallel sides.
#3
Given :
- Length of the rectangle = 24ft
- Width of the rectangle = 10ft
To find :
- Length of the side of a rhombus inside of the rectangle made up by adjoining the midpoints.
Solution :
We know that,
- Midpoint divides the side into two equal parts
Therefore,
The length and width would be divided into half to make a triangle with the side of the rhombus.
To find the measure of the side ,
we will use Pythagoras theorem,
- H = √(p²+b²)
- H = √[(24/2)²+(10/2)²]
- H = √[(12)²+(5)²]
- H = √(144+25)
- H=√169
- H = 13
Therefore,the measure of the side of the rhombus would be equal to 13ft
