Warm-Up: Problem of the Day Find the distance between P(3, 16) and Q(7, 4) Is this line segment parallel, perpendicular, or neither compared to y = ⅓x + 4?
Classifying Shapes on a Coordinate Plane Learning Goal: I can use the characteristics of slope and side lengths to verify shapes on a coordinate plane.
Classifying Shapes Classifying Triangles – By side length (scalene, isosceles, equilateral) – By slope of adjoining sides (right, non-right) Classifying Quadrilaterals – By side length and slope of adjoining/opposite sides How could you prove a triangle is isosceles? How could you prove a quadrilateral is a rectangle?
Example 1 The vertices P(6, 36), Q(-30, 9), R(-12, -15), and S((24, 12) mark out the corners of a building site. Prove that these coordinates will create a rectangular building site.
Example 2 A triangle has vertices D(-7, 0), E(2, 1), and F(-3, 5). Prove that triangle DEF is an isosceles right triangle.
