Question

Ms. Juhal was making t-shirts. One of the designs had the instructions to make points at the following locations and then draw lines to connect the points in order: A (-5,5); B(-5,3);C(-5,1); and D (2,1)

Answer 1

Answer:

See the picture attached.

The shape created is a Triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing part is: "Connect them in order: A to B, B to C, C to D, and then D back to A. What shape is created?"

For this exercise it is important to remember that, given a point $P(x,y)$, "x" is the the x-coordinate of the point and "y" is the y-coordinate of the point.

In this case, Ms. Juhal has the following points:

1) Point $A (-5,5)$

Where you can identify that:

$x=-5;y=5$

2) Point $B(-5,3)$

Where:

$x=-5;y=3$

 3) Point $C(-5,1)$

Where you can observe that:

$x=-5;y=1$

4) Point $D (2,1)$

Where:

$x=2;y=1$

Therefore, knowing the coordinates of each point, you can plot them and connect them in order (Observe the picture attached).

Finally, you can identify that the shape created is a Triangle.
