Question

In the following, the coordinates of the three vertices of a rectangle ABCD are given. By plotting the given points; find, in case, the coordinates of the fourth vertex:
A (4, 2), B(-2, 2) and D(4, -2).

Answer 1

A(4,2), B(-2,-2) and D(4,-2)

After plotting the given points A(4,2), B(-2,2) and D(4,-2) on a graph paper; joining A with B and A with D. From the graph it is clear that the vertical distance between the points A(4,2) and D(4,-2) is 4 units and the horizontal distance between the points A(4,2) and B(-2,2) is 6 units, therefore the vertical distance between the points B(-2,2)and C must be 4 units and the horizontal distance between the points B(-2,2) and C must be 6 units. Now complete the rectangle ABCD

As is clear from the graph C(-2,2)
