C(7,0)
A(-10,-1)
T(3,-2)
The diagram shows parallelogram ABCD where AB is parallel to DC and DC is parallel to DA. Point T lies on DC such that angle BTC is 90°. The coordinates of C are (-10,-1), A are (3,-2), and B is (0,P).
Find the gradient of AB and the gradient of BT, expressing the gradient of AB as a positive constant. Otherwise, find the value of P in terms of E.
Calculate the perimeter of ABCD, correcting any decimal places. Otherwise, calculate the area of ABCD.
