14. You could guess a square but to prove it:
2 x + 2 y = 144
so
y = 72-x
A = x y = x(72-x)
x^2 - 72 x = -A
x^2- 72 x + 1296 = -(A-1296)
(x-36)^2 = -(A-1296)
vertex at x = 36, Area = 1296,
36 * 4 = 144 so square 36 on a side with area = 1296
I will not answer 35. Again draw it on a piece of paper.
40 are two points on your desk top in the same plane??? If you draw the line between them is it on the desk top?
41. Is a point not on your desk top on your desk top or not?
