Polygon abcd has the following vertices: a(−3, 3), b(5, 5), c(5, −4), and d(−3, −4) calculate the area of the polygon. 52 units squared 56 units squared 64 units squared 72 units squared yes it is multiple choice answer for 5o points 

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. When you plot the given points, you obtain a trapezoid, therefore, you must apply the formula for calculate the area of a trapezoid, which is:

Where is the larger base, is the smaller base and is the height.

2. The dimensions are:

3. Substitute values:

The answer is:

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.
