Answer:
The quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram as, slope of AB = slope of DC = 5, and slope of AD = slope of BC = 0.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadrilateral ABCD has vertices at A(3,−2), B(4,3), C(−2,0), and D(−3,−5).
So, the slope of AB = [tex]\frac{3 + 2}{4 - 3} = 5[/tex]
Now, the slope of BC = [tex]\frac{0 - 3}{- 2 - 4} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
The slope of CD = [tex]\frac{- 5 - 0}{- 3 + 2} = 5[/tex]
Finally, the slope of DA = [tex]\frac{- 2 + 5}{3 + 3} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Therefore, the quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram as, slope of AB = slope of DC = 5, and slope of AD = slope of BC = 0.5. (Answer)
Note: A quadrilateral to be a parallelogram the slope of each pair of opposite sides must be the same.
