What is the most precise name for quadrilateral ABCD with vertices A(-4,-4), B(-4,-2), C(-1,-2), and D(-1,-4) A: rhombus B:quadrilateral C:rectangle D:parallelogram
I am guessing rectangle......you might want to get a second opinion....graphs are not my best subject.
well, just draw it first :)
I drew it and it looks like a rectangle
ahemm, can we see the picture? :)
it's a rectangle anyway, you're correct but lemme show you 2 rectangles|dw:1372010362594:dw|
which one does your resemble? the one on the left, or the one on the right?
it's also a PARALLELOGRAM too btw
|dw:1372010079359:dw|
so, off the 2 above, which ones does your resemble?
right
ahemm one sec
mine looks like this
thanks
well, you see, I can understand you see that as the one on the right-hand-side but that'd occur if your cartesian plane x-axis and y-axis aren't equal in proportion
so, to get the picture, make sure your x-axis has the same values as the y-axis, so if you have 10 units over the x-axis, you should also have 10 units over the y-axis, otherwise the picture gets disproportional
it's a parallelogram, it has 2 sides parallel to each other and is also a rectangle, yes, it has 4 right-angles, but all sides are equal, so more PRECISELY is a quadrilateral 2 parallel sides to each other all have \(90^o\) angles all sides are equally long
