Question

The vertices of a quadrilateral are A(−5, 3), B(2, 2), C(4,−3), and D(−2,−2). Find the slope of each side. slope of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ = slope of BC¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ = slope of CD¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ = slope of DA¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ =

Answer 1

AB slope is -1/7; slope of BC is -5/2; slope of CD is -1/6; slope of DA is 1/-7

Answer 2

----------------------------------------------------- 
Vertices of a quadrilateral :
----------------------------------------------------- 
A(−5, 3), B(2, 2), C(4,−3), and D(−2,−2)

----------------------------------------------------- 
Formula to find slope :
----------------------------------------------------- 
$\text {Slope = } \dfrac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}$


----------------------------------------------------- 
Slope of AB : 
----------------------------------------------------- 

$\text {Slope = } \dfrac{2-3}{2-(-5)}$

$\text {Slope = } -\dfrac{1}{7}$
----------------------------------------------------- 
Slope of BC : 
----------------------------------------------------- 
$\text {Slope = } \dfrac{-3-2}{4-2}$

$\text {Slope = } - \dfrac{5}{2}$

----------------------------------------------------- 
Slope of CD : 
----------------------------------------------------- 

$\text {Slope = } \dfrac{-2-(-3)}{-2-4}$

$\text {Slope = } -\dfrac{1}{6}$

----------------------------------------------------- 
Slope of DA : 
----------------------------------------------------- 
$\text {Slope = } \dfrac{-2 -3}{-2 - (-5)}$

$\text {Slope = } -\dfrac{5}{3}$
