The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the coordinates of point C in the rhombus ABCD, given the slopes of sides AB and AD, and the side length of the rhombus. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Coordinates of Points A and B**: - Point A is given as (0, 0). - Let the coordinates of point B be (x_B, y_B). - The slope of AB is given as \( \frac{4}{3} \). Thus, we can write: \[ \frac{y_B - 0}{x_B - 0} = \frac{4}{3} \implies y_B = \frac{4}{3} x_B \] 2. **Use the Length of AB**: - The length of AB is given as 10 units. Therefore, we have: \[ x_B^2 + y_B^2 = 10^2 \] - Substituting \( y_B = \frac{4}{3} x_B \) into the equation: \[ x_B^2 + \left(\frac{4}{3} x_B\right)^2 = 100 \] \[ x_B^2 + \frac{16}{9} x_B^2 = 100 \] \[ \frac{25}{9} x_B^2 = 100 \] \[ x_B^2 = 100 \times \frac{9}{25} = 36 \implies x_B = 6 \quad (\text{since } x_B > 0) \] - Now, substituting back to find \( y_B \): \[ y_B = \frac{4}{3} \times 6 = 8 \] - Thus, the coordinates of point B are \( (6, 8) \). 3. **Identify the Coordinates of Point D**: - Let the coordinates of point D be \( (x_D, y_D) \). - The slope of AD is given as \( \frac{3}{4} \). Thus: \[ \frac{y_D - 0}{x_D - 0} = \frac{3}{4} \implies y_D = \frac{3}{4} x_D \] 4. **Use the Length of AD**: - The length of AD is also 10 units. Therefore: \[ x_D^2 + y_D^2 = 10^2 \] - Substituting \( y_D = \frac{3}{4} x_D \): \[ x_D^2 + \left(\frac{3}{4} x_D\right)^2 = 100 \] \[ x_D^2 + \frac{9}{16} x_D^2 = 100 \] \[ \frac{25}{16} x_D^2 = 100 \] \[ x_D^2 = 100 \times \frac{16}{25} = 64 \implies x_D = 8 \quad (\text{since } x_D > 0) \] - Now substituting back to find \( y_D \): \[ y_D = \frac{3}{4} \times 8 = 6 \] - Thus, the coordinates of point D are \( (8, 6) \). 5. **Find the Midpoint K of Diagonal AC**: - The coordinates of point C can be denoted as \( (x_C, y_C) \). - The midpoint K of diagonal AC is given by: \[ K = \left( \frac{0 + x_C}{2}, \frac{0 + y_C}{2} \right) \] - Since diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other, the midpoint K must also be the midpoint of BD: \[ K = \left( \frac{6 + 8}{2}, \frac{8 + 6}{2} \right) = \left( 7, 7 \right) \] 6. **Set Up the Equations for C**: - From the midpoint K: \[ \frac{x_C}{2} = 7 \implies x_C = 14 \] \[ \frac{y_C}{2} = 7 \implies y_C = 14 \] 7. **Calculate the Sum of Abscissa and Ordinate of Point C**: - The sum of the coordinates of point C is: \[ x_C + y_C = 14 + 14 = 28 \] ### Final Answer: The sum of the abscissa and ordinate of point C is **28**.
