Question

The vertices of a figure are labeled clockwise A(–4, 2), B(2, 4), C(7, 1), and D(–5, –3). How could you show that the figure is a trapezoid? (Hint: A trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides.)

Answer 1

plot the points on a graph and join them to form a closed figure. two sides that are parallel shows it is a trapezoid
