Question

Trapezoid ABCD with vertices A(-8,-4),B(-5, -1), C(0, -2), and D(-4,-8) in the x-axis. I just need help graphing the points

Answer 1

We want to plot the points A,B,C and D on the graph.

On a graph sheet, the vertical axis is always known as the y axis.

the horizontal axis is the x axis.

The coordinates are written in the form (x,y), the first value is the x axis and the second the y axis.

Plotting the points below on the graph we have;

`\begin{gathered} A(-8,-4) \\ B(-5,-1) \\ C(0,-2) \\ D(-4,-8) \end{gathered}`

Attached is a typical plot of the given points.
