Given that the points (-3, 2) and (1, 2) are vertices of a square, what two sets of coordinates could form the other two vertices? A) (-3, 6) and (2, 6) B) (-3, 6) and (1, 6) C) (-3, 5) and (1, 5) D) (-3, 5) and (-1, 5)

Let (2,-3) be point A and (1,2) be point B
can you find the distance AB?
the distance between the given points are 1 - (-3) = 4 so what other two points would be also 4 units away from the given points?
C
i don't think it's C
not quite :) you want something that is 4 units on all sides for it to be a square http://prntscr.com/5euqh3
square means the distance of four vertice are the same
what're the coordinates of four units upward from point B(1,2)
?
