Question 840250: the question is : determine the type of quadrilateral described by the vertices J(-2,6), K(1,2), L(6,2) and M (3,6). show the steps of your solution.
so i worked it out and i got the slope of jk=-4/3 LM= 4/-3 KL=0/5 JM= 0/5 so i think so i think KL is parallel to JM
so i calculate the lengths and get JK= sqrt 5 JM= sqrt5 ML= sqrt 5 KL= sqrt 6.48
what quadrilateral is this shape??? if am correct

Hi,
Slopes:JK= -4/3 LM= 4/-3 Parallel
Slopes: KL=0/5 JM= 0/5 Parallel
Lengths: JK=ML=JM=KL= 5
Square Rhombus
