Points A (5, 3), B (- 2, 3) and D (5, -4) are three vertices of a square ABCD. Plot these points on a graph paper and hence find the coordinates of the vertex C.
Answer:
Solution.
Points and are three vertices of a square ABCD
If we plot them, we get:
Length of AD = Length of BC
Length of AB = Length of CD
From point D, we have made a parallel line to AB, towards the third quadrant.
Similarly from point B, we have made a parallel line to AD, towards the third quadrant.
These lines intersect at the point
Hence the square ABCD is formed and C is
