Question

The coordinates below are the three vertices of a rectangle. Identify the fourth coordinate and the area of the rectangle.

A coordinate plane with the following points A at negative 2, 2; B at negative 2, negative 4; and C at 2, negative 4.

(2, 1), 24 units squared
(2, 1), 20 units squared
(2, 2), 24 units squared
(2, 2), 20 units squared

Answer 1

(2,2), 24 units squared

Answer 2

(2,2), 24 units squared

Explanation:

D is at (2,2) because it would make Line AD equal to line BC and line AB equal to line CD, which would make a rectangle.

Area= length x width

A= 6 x 4

A=24 units squared

Good Luck!
