Decide on which quadrilateral you will create. For this activity you may use a kite, trapezoid or a parallelogram (that is not a square, rhombus, or rectangle).

Graph the quadrilateral on a coordinate plane. You may print and use graph paper a drawing program such as GeoGebra. The four vertices of the quadrilateral will serve as four destinations on your map. One can be the starting point, the others can be clues along the way, and the last one will be where X marks the spot!

Find the length and slope of each side to justify the classification of your quadrilateral.
