What is the equation of the line through (7,2) and (2,7)

i'm a sophomore in connections, i'd recommend checking on jishka.com they have a large range of questions and answers from our school.

look at the picture.

1.

ef : ab = 2 : 3

gf : cb = 2 : 3

gh : cd = 2 : 3

he : da = 2 : 3

2.

∠a ≅ ∠e

∠b ≅ ∠f

∠c ≅ ∠g

∠d ≅ ∠h

3.

use pythagorean theorem:

the length of the abcd trapezoid sides:

|ab| = 3 cm

|bc| = 10 cm

|cd| = 3(3) cm = 9 cm

|da| = 8 cm

the perimeter of abcd = 3 + 10 + 9 + 8 = 30 cm

the ratio of perimeters of the tarapezoids is equal 2 : 3.

substitute:

      cross multiply

      divide both sides by 3

answer: approximately 2.878

step-by-step explanation:

you multiply 11 and pi (3.14) then after you have 34.54. the final step is to divide by 12. the final answer is approximately 2.878
