Question

A rectangle has vertices at these coordinates. (−6, 3), (−6, 5), (2, 3) What are the coordinates of the fourth vertex of the rectangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

(2, 5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the line joining the first 2 points = (5 - 3) = 2 units. This is a vertical line because the 2 x coordinates  ( -6 and - 6) are equal.

The line joining ( -6 , 3) and (2 , 3) is horizontal and is 2 - -6 = 8 units long.

Because we have a rectangle the point we need to find must have x coordinate of 2 and the y coordinate will be 2 more than the y coordinate 3.

.So it is  (2, 5),
