Question

Harry plotted A(-3, 3), B(-7, 3), and C(-6, 6) and joined the points to form triangle ABC. He plotted two other points at P(2, -1) and Q(6, -1).

What should be the coordinates of the third point R to form triangle PQR that is congruent to triangle ABC?

A. (5, 2)

B. (-2, -1)

C. (4, 1)

D. (-1, -4)

Answer 1

harry plopper.

Answer 2

lol idk why i got a medal for that.

Answer 3

one sec, i'll graph it for you so you have something visual

Answer 4

Please plot the points before seeking help, it benefits the student more than the tutor : )

Answer 5

alright, where do you think point r would have to be?

Answer 6

@AriPotta , are you asking the question or providing the solution?

Answer 7

i'm asking the question again.i'm trying to see where she thinks it's supposed to be. and i'll tell her if it's wrong or right and then i'll tell her why it's wrong or right. if you wanna help her, you can

Answer 8

I know the length of AB = 4 and PQ = 4
Side CA = 3sqrt2 and BC = sqrt 10

Answer 9

well, how about you imagine each of the answer choices as the answer and see which is right?

Answer 10

thats a good idea! thanks!

Answer 11

no problem :)
