Math Problem Statement
Alex is studying the properties of triangles and has plotted the vertices shown below on a coordinate plane. Alex needs to classify the triangle by its angles and sides. Using the given coordinates, classify ∆ABC by angles and sides.
Solution
To classify by its angles and sides, we need to know the coordinates of the vertices , , and . Can you provide the coordinates of the vertices? Once we have them, I will calculate the side lengths and determine the triangle's classification based on angles and sides.
Feel free to upload an image of the coordinate plane or type the coordinates directly.
