Final answer:

To determine if a coordinate is inside a parallelogram, we need to check if it lies on the line segments formed by the given coordinates.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if a coordinate is inside the parallelogram, we need to check if it lies on the line segments formed by the given coordinates.

a) (2, 5): This coordinate does not lie on any of the line segments formed by K(1,2), J(5,5), G(0,8). So it is not inside the parallelogram.

b) (6, 8): This coordinate does not lie on any of the line segments formed by K(1,2), J(5,5), G(0,8). So it is not inside the parallelogram.

c) (1, 8): This coordinate lies on the line segment formed by G(0,8) and J(5,5), so it is inside the parallelogram.

d) (-1, 2): This coordinate does not lie on any of the line segments formed by K(1,2), J(5,5), G(0,8). So it is not inside the parallelogram.
