Question

What is the best name for the figure with vertices at the following coordinates? (0,0), (-1, 1), (6, 1), and (2, 0)

Answer 1

The figure with the given coordinates is a quadrilateral called a trapezoid.

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure with the given coordinates is a quadrilateral.

Based on the given vertices, the figure can be visualized as a quadrilateral with the following sides: AB, BC, CD, and DA.

The best name for this figure is a trapezoid. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides. In this case, the sides AB and CD are parallel, making it a trapezoid.

Answer 2

We are given with the following vertices:
A (0,0)
B (-1,1)
C(6,1)
D (2.0)

Next is to plot the vertices in the Cartesian plane so that we can identify the figure. See attached image.

The identified shape is a "Parallelogram".
