Question

An artist designed a badge for a school club. Figure ABCD on the coordinate grid below shows the shape of the badge.



The badge is enlarged and plotted on the coordinate grid as Figure JKLM with point J located at (2, -2) and point M located at (5, 4).

Which of these could be the possible coordinates for vertex L?

Answer 1

(2, 4)

(8, 4)

(5, 1)

(5, 7)

Answer 2

(5, 1)

Answer 3

@goformit100 could uplease explainn how?

Answer 4

Use distance formula

Answer 5

on what?

Answer 6

on the given coordinates

Answer 7

If you plotted point L on (5,1) it would not resemble the badge drawn in figure ABCD. All the question is asking is to plot point L on the enlarged picture. We can tell from figure ABCD that L is referring to point C and M is referring to point D. We can also tell that C and D have the same y coordinate. and since C is to the right of D then the x value increases. I would think that the answer is (8,4).
