Question

The coordinates for one vertex of a rectangle are (1.25,1). The length of the rectangle is 2.5 units, and the width of the rectangle is 1.25 units.

Draw this rectangle on the coordinate grid.Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the rectangle is 2.5 units. To find the point that is 2.5 units from (1.25,1), count 2.5 units to the left of the point. The x-coordinate will change and the y-coordinate will remain the same. This point is (-1.25,1).

The width of the rectangle is 1.25 units. To find the point that is 1.25 units from (1.25,1), count 1.25 units down from the point. The y-coordinate will change and the x-coordinate will remain the same. This point is (1.25,-0.25).

The coordinates of the final point to plot are found using the new x- and y-coordinates. This point is (-1.25,-0.25).

The correctly graphed rectangle is shown below.
