Question

Plot the following three points to create a rectangle. Find the missing vertex: (6,1); (-4,1); (-4,-3)

Answer 1

The missing vertex is (6, -3).

Explanation:

Notice that if you graph the points, the first two points (6, 1) and (-4, 1), the y-coordinates are the same, and in the points (-4, 1) and (-4, -3) the x-coordinates are the same.

To make a rectangle, the fourth point need to have matching y-coordinates with the point (-4, -3) and matching x-coordinates with the point (6, 1). Therefore, the missing vertex is (6, -3).
