Ex. 1: Placing a Rectangle in a Coordinate Plane
Place a 2-unit by 6-unit rectangle in a coordinate plane – many possible answers here!
One possible answer:
One vertex is at the origin, and three of the vertices have at least one coordinate that is 0.

Ex. 1: Placing a Rectangle in a Coordinate Plane
Another possible answer:
One side is centered at the origin, and the x-coordinates are opposites.

Note: Once a figure has been placed in a coordinate plane,
you can use the Distance Formula or the Midpoint Formula to measure distances or locate points
What is the distance formula?
What is the midpoint formula?

Ex. 2: Using the Distance Formula
A right triangle has legs of 5 units and 12 units. Place the triangle in a coordinate plane. Label the coordinates of the vertices and find the length of the hypotenuse.
