Question

What are the coordinates of the fourth point that could be connected with (–8, 0), (1, 0), and (1, –5) to form a rectangle?

Answer 1

(-8,-5). If you think about it, for a rectangle, the x-coordinates must be the same in two pairs and the y-coordinates must be the same in two pairs. Since there are already 2 0's, 2 1's, you need a -8 and -5 to complete it. Hence, the last coordinate is (-8,-5)
