Question

(7.10; 7.15)

1. The diagram below shows a
parallelogram.
12 cm
28 cm
If the parallelogram were enlarged
using a scale factor of 3, the perimeter
of the enlarged parallelogram would
be
A 80 cm
B 120 cm
C 200 cm
D 240 cm

Answer 1

We let x 1 = 13, y 1 = 8, x 2 = 9, y 2 = 6, x 3 = 4, y 3 = 2, x 4 = 8, y 4 = 4 and the area is given by The absolute value of the cross product of two vectors a →, b → ∈ R 3 spanning the parallelogram is its area:
