Introduction:
The coordinate geometry is also called a coordinate plane. It enables a plane in perpendicular axes : x and y in two-dimensional form. The horizontal direction indicates the x-axis while the vertical direction y-axis indicates of the plane. In these points are indicated by their positions along the x and y-axes.
Coordinate Proof and Quadrilaterals:
Proof: - Positioning a Square
Position and label a square with side’s n units long on the coordinate plane.
- Let A, B, C, and D be vertices of the square.
- Place A at the origin. As a result, AB is on the
positive x-axis and AD is on the y-axis. Label
the vertices A, B, C, and D. - The y-coordinate of B is 0 because the vertex is
on the x-axis. Since the side length is n,
the x-coordinate is n. - D is on the y-axis so the x-coordinate is 0.
The y-coordinate is 0 + n or n. - The x-coordinate of C is also n. The y-coordinate is
0 + n or n because the side BC is n units long.
