Answer:
The slope of side w is: ¼
The slope of side z is: -4
The slope of side x is: ¼
The slope y is : -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of w between (-1, 5) and (-5, 4):
[tex] slope(m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{4 - 5}{-5 -(-1)} = \frac{-1}{-4} = \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
Slope of x between (-3, -4) and (1, -3):
[tex] slope(m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{-3 -(-4)}{1 -(-3)} = \frac{1}{4} = [/tex]
Slope of y between (-3, -4) and (-5, 4):
[tex] slope(m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{4 -(-4)}{-5 -(-3)} = \frac{8}{-2} = -4 [/tex]
Slope of z between (1, -3) and (-1, 5)):
[tex] slope(m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{5 -(-3)}{-1 - 1} = \frac{8}{-2} = -4 [/tex]
