Prove that the quadrilateral ABCD with vertices A(-5, -1), B(-9,6), C(-1,5), and D(3,-2) is a rhombus.
Do the work (Calculations) Find the Slopes of the sides.
Do the work (calculations Find the Lengths of the Sides
So Why is it a Rhombus? Cause it looks like one. The sides are equal. It’s a rhombus.
So Why is it a Rhombus?
2. Prove that ABCD with A(–5, 0), B(2, –4), C(6, 3), and D(–1, 7) is a rectangle. Get into your groups of 4 and discuss and solve the second problem.
