Question

A rectangle with length three times its width needs to be placed on the coordinate plane for use in a coordinate proof. (a) Describe how to place the rectangle on the coordinate plane. (b) Tell what the coordinates of the vertices would be. Use variables for nonzero coordinates

Answer 1

For this case what we can do is place the rectangle in the coordinate plane that meets the following dimensions:
width: w = 3
Length: 3 * w = 3 * 3 = 9
The coordinates of the vertices that meet the dimensions given are:
A = (1,1)
B = (1,4)
C = (10.4)
D = (10.1)
