Answer:
x -3y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
A plot of the points reveals the longer diagonal to be BD. (Also, point C is on that line.)
We can write the standard form equation of the line through (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) as ...
(y2 -y1)x -(x2 -x1)y = (y2 -y1)x1 -(x2 -x1)y1
For points (-2, -2) and (16, 4), this equation is ...
(4 -(-2))x -(16 -(-2))y = (4 -(-2))(-2) -(16 -(-2))(-2)
6x -18y = -12 +36
Dividing by the greatest common factor (6), we have the standard-form equation ...
x -3y = 4
