The water from an outdoor fountain follows a path that is shaped like a parabola. The arch created by the water is 32 inches wide and 27 inches high. Use the description of the fountain to label the three points on the graph, modeling the path of the water

Given: ae ≅ ce ; de ≅ be prove: abcd is a parallelogram. we have that ab || dc. by a similar argument used to prove that △aeb ≅ △ced, we can show that △ ≅ △ceb by. so, ∠cad ≅ ∠ by cpctc. therefore, ad || bc by the converse of the theorem. since both pair of opposite sides are parallel, quadrilateral abcd is a parallelogram.
