In the polynomial below, what number should replace the question mark to
produce a difference of squares?
2+2х-36

A. 36
B. 0
C. 12
D. 6

where's the diagram?

step-by-step explanation:

( - 4 , -7 )

all the lines must parallel  

step-by-step explanation:

coordinates of c = ( - 1 , 2 )

3 units left = ( -4 , 2 )

9 units down = ( - 4 , 11 )

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
