Either I don't get this or I misread this. Someone help me out please -_-. ------------------------------------ On the same grid she will draw parallelogram PQRS similar to parallelogram ABCD with the ratio of corresponding side lengths PQ and AB equal to 4:1. If the coordinates of vertex P are (-8, -5), what could be the coordinates of vertex Q?

still there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How long is AB?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4units of x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 units, correct. So how long will PQ be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct, and now you have the length of RS as well. And now you can figure the other two side in the same manner.

Thank you!
