Answer: Side B'A' has a slope of 1 and is parallel to side BA.
The slope of BA and slope of B'A' are the same that is 1. So, the correct option is B). Side B'A' has a slope of 1 and is parallel to side BA and this can be determined by finding the slope of sides BA and B'A'.
Given :
- Rectangle BADC.
- Points - A(3,5), B(1,3), C(5,-1) and D(7,1)
Evaluate the slope of BA and B'A' in order to determine which statement is correct.
The slope of BA is given by:
[tex]\rm m_1 = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\[/tex]
Now, put the values of [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] in the above equation.
[tex]\rm m_1 = \dfrac{5-3}{3-1}[/tex]
[tex]\rm m_1 = 1[/tex]
After the rotation of [tex]180^\circ[/tex] point (x,y) becomes (-x,-y). So, point A(3,5) becomes A'(-3,-5) and point B(1,3) becomes B'(-1,-3).
The slope of B'A' is given by:
[tex]\rm m_2 = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\[/tex]
Now, put the values of [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] in the above equation.
[tex]\rm m_2 = \dfrac{-5+3}{-3+1}[/tex]
[tex]\rm m_2 = 1[/tex]
Therefore, the slope of BA and slope of B'A' are the same that is 1. So, the correct option is B). Side B'A' has a slope of 1 and is parallel to side BA.
