Math Problem Statement
Solution
To solve for the coordinates of point A in the rectangle:
-
We are given two of the rectangle's vertices:
and are the bottom two points.
is the top right point. -
The x-coordinate of point A will be the same as the x-coordinate of the point , since both points lie vertically aligned on the left side of the rectangle.
-
The y-coordinate of point A will be the same as the y-coordinate of the point , since both points lie horizontally aligned on the top side of the rectangle.
Thus, the coordinates of A are .
