Answer: (1, -4)

====================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's label the given points A, B and C

  • A = (-6, -2)
  • B = (-4, 7)
  • C = (3, 5)

To move from B to C, we do two things in either order:

  • Go down 2
  • Go right 7

This motion of "down 2, right 7" is copied or mirrored when we go from A to D. This is to ensure that BC is parallel to AD.

Start at point A and go down 2 units to get to (-6, -4). Then move 7 units to the right to arrive at (1, -4) which is the location of point D. You can use a tool like GeoGebra to verify the answer is correct.
