Answer:
AB is correct as It is the shorter parallel line
as the line measures 6 units.
Explanation:
The polygon is a trapezoid / (trapezium Eng/Europe)
We see the given coordinates (2, 6) - (-4, 6) = x-6 y 0 = x = 6units
as x always is shown as x - 6 as x= 6
We can also show workings as y2-y1/x2-x1 = 6-6/-4-2 0/-6
y = 0 x = 6 = 6 units as its horizontal line.
when y is 6-6 = 0 then we know the line is horizontal for y = 0.
The difference of the measures -4 to 2 is 6units so if no workings we just add on from -4 to 2 and find the answer is 6 units long.
When looking at diagonal lines we still group the x's and y's and make the fraction whole.
When looking for solid vertical lines that aren't shown here we use the y values if showing workings and show x =0 to cancel out.
