Question

What are the coordinates of this polygon's vertices?

(1, 1), (3, 1) and (1, 4)

(1, 1), (5, 1) and (1, 4)

(1, 1), (1, 5) and (4, 1)

(1, 1), (5, 1) and (4, 1)

(1, 1), (1, 5) and (1, 4)

Answer 1

coordinates are (x,y)

so for each point, go across the x axis and up the y axis

for the first point, you go over 1 unit and up one unit so the point is

(1,1)

for the second point, you go over 1 unit, but up 4 units so the point is

(1,4)

for the third point, you go over 5 units and up 1 unit so the point is

(5,1)

so your answer is

B) (1,1), (5,1), and (1,4)
