Question

Points G (-8, -2), H (-6, -2), I (-6, -4), and J (-8, -4) are plotted on a coordinate grid. Which statement is correct about the points?

They do not form a square because the diagonals are not congruent.

They do not form a square because the side lengths are not congruent.

They form a square because GI is perpendicular and congruent to GH and GJ.

They form a square because the segments GH, HI, IJ, and JG are congruent sides of the quadrilateral.

Answer 1

Do you have a graphing program like geogebra?

Answer 2

Noo

Answer 3

are you able to install programs on your computer?

Answer 4

Iv'e has it before. But never could figure out how to use it.

Answer 5

I can teach you how to use it

Answer 6

it's not that hard to learn and once you get it, you can use it for pretty much any geometry problem (not all, but most)

Answer 7

Well, can you just explain it to me on here ? Or tryyy

Answer 8

sure thing

Answer 9

if you can show that the segments GH, HI, IJ, and GJ are all the same length and that the diagonals GI and HJ are the same length, then you will have shown that GHIJ is a square

I'm using geogebra to do this, but you can do this by hand (by using the distance formula)

If you look at the attached image, you'll see that the side lengths are all equal to 2. The diagonals are also equal to each other. So we have a square.

Answer 10

So its the last answer ?
