Question

A rhombus, which is a quadrilateral with 44 equal sides, is plotted on the coordinate plane. The coordinates of the vertices are: (-1,0)-1,0, (4,0)4,0, (2,4)2,4, and (7,4)7,4. How long is each side of the rhombus?

Answer 1

4 sides, find distance between each point
distance between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is

`D= √((x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2)`


so
distance between any 2 points
(-1,0) and (4,0)
wait, the y values don't change so just find distance between x values
-1 to 4 is a distance of 5
5 unts is distance
