Math Problem Statement
Solution
In this image, you are asked to plot two line segments, and , on a coordinate plane using the given points:
- Point
- Point
- Point
- Point
Here’s how you can plot the segments:
-
Plot points A and B:
- : Move to and on the coordinate plane.
- : Move to and .
- Draw a horizontal line segment connecting these two points. Since both points share the same -coordinate, the line will be horizontal.
-
Plot points C and D:
- : Move to and .
- : Move to and .
- Draw a vertical line segment connecting these two points. Since both points share the same -coordinate, the line will be vertical.
The resulting graph should show:
- A horizontal line segment from to .
- A vertical line segment from to .
Would you like more details on how to compute slope or distance for these segments? Or do you have any other questions?
Here are 5 related questions:
- What is the distance between points and ?
- What is the distance between points and ?
- How do we calculate the slope of a line segment between two points?
- What is the midpoint of the segment ?
- What is the equation of the line through points and ?
Tip: When two points share the same -coordinate, the line between them is vertical; when they share the same -coordinate, the line is horizontal.
