The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given points and determine the properties of the quadrilateral \( ABA_1B_1 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Points:** - Given points are: - \( A_1(4, -5) \) - \( B_1(-7, 0) \) - Since \( A_1 \) and \( B_1 \) are reflections of points \( A \) and \( B \) in the origin, we can find \( A \) and \( B \) as follows: - \( A(-4, 5) \) (since reflection in the origin changes the sign of both coordinates) - \( B(7, 0) \) 2. **Plot the Points:** - Plot the points \( A(-4, 5) \), \( B(7, 0) \), \( A_1(4, -5) \), and \( B_1(-7, 0) \) on a Cartesian plane. 3. **Connect the Points to Form the Quadrilateral:** - Connect the points \( A \), \( B \), \( A_1 \), and \( B_1 \) to form the quadrilateral \( ABA_1B_1 \). 4. **Determine the Lengths of the Sides:** - Use the distance formula to find the lengths of the sides: - Distance \( AB \): \[ AB = \sqrt{(7 - (-4))^2 + (0 - 5)^2} = \sqrt{(7 + 4)^2 + (0 - 5)^2} = \sqrt{11^2 + (-5)^2} = \sqrt{121 + 25} = \sqrt{146} \] - Distance \( A_1B_1 \): \[ A_1B_1 = \sqrt{(-7 - 4)^2 + (0 - (-5))^2} = \sqrt{(-11)^2 + (5)^2} = \sqrt{121 + 25} = \sqrt{146} \] - Distance \( AB_1 \): \[ AB_1 = \sqrt{(-7 - (-4))^2 + (0 - 5)^2} = \sqrt{(-3)^2 + (-5)^2} = \sqrt{9 + 25} = \sqrt{34} \] - Distance \( A_1B \): \[ A_1B = \sqrt{(7 - 4)^2 + (0 - (-5))^2} = \sqrt{(3)^2 + (5)^2} = \sqrt{9 + 25} = \sqrt{34} \] 5. **Check for Parallelogram Properties:** - We observe that: - \( AB = A_1B_1 \) (both equal to \( \sqrt{146} \)) - \( AB_1 = A_1B \) (both equal to \( \sqrt{34} \)) - Since both pairs of opposite sides are equal, \( ABA_1B_1 \) is a parallelogram. 6. **Conclusion:** - The quadrilateral \( ABA_1B_1 \) is a **parallelogram** because opposite sides are equal in length.
