Example Question #51 : Draw Polygons In The Coordinate Plane And Solve For Side Lengths: Ccss.Math.Content.6.G.A.3

Select the graph that displays the polygon created using the following coordinates:

Possible Answers:

 

Plot 10

 

Plot 11

 

Plot 12

 

Plot 9

Correct answer:

 

Plot 9

Explanation:

When we are given coordinate points, it's important to know the difference between the x-axis and the y-axis, and which order these points are given. The x-axis is the axis that runs left to right and the y-axis is the axis the runs up and down. When coordinate points are written, the x value goes first, followed by the y value .

Knowing this information, we can plot the points and use straight lines to connect them in a counter-clockwise or clockwise direction. The provided coordinate points should create the following graph:
