Learn to identify polygons and midpoints of segments in the coordinate plane.
Vocabulary midpoint
In computer graphics, a coordinate system is used to create images, from simple geometric figures to realistic figures used in movies. Properties of the coordinate plane can be used to find information about figures in the plane, such as whether lines in the plane are parallel.
Additional Example 1A: Using Coordinates to Classify Quadrilaterals Graph the polygons with the given vertices. Give the most specific name for the polygon. A(0, –2), B(3, 3), C(3, –2) Step 1: Classify the polygon by its angles. C is a right angle, so triangle ACB is a right triangle.
Additional Example 1A Continued Step 2: Classify the triangle by its sides. Find the length of each side. AC = |3 – 0| = 3 BC = |–2 – 3| = 5 The triangle has no congruent sides, so it is scalene. Triangle ACB is a right scalene triangle.
Additional Example 1B: Using Coordinates to Classify Quadrilaterals Graph the polygons with the given vertices. Give the most specific name for the polygon. L(2, 1), M(5, 1), N(5, –1), P(2, –1) Examine the sides of the quadrilateral. LM and PN are parallel. LP and MN are parallel. The quadrilateral is a rectangle because it has two sets of parallel sides and the sets of parallel sides are different lengths.
Check It Out: Example 1 Graph the polygons with the given vertices. Give the most specific name for the polygon. Q(–2, 3), R(1, 5), S(1, –2), T(–2, –4) Examine the sides of the quadrilateral. QT and RS are parallel. The quadrilateral is a parallelogram because it has two sets of parallel sides and the sets of parallel sides do not form 90 angles. QR and TS are parallel.
Additional Example 2A: Finding the Coordinates of a Missing Vertex Find the coordinates of each missing vertex. Triangle ABC has a right angle at C and AC = 2. Find one set of possible coordinates for A. Since BC is horizontal, AC must be vertical for the triangle to have a right angle at C. (4, 0) or (4, –4)
Additional Example 2B: Finding the Coordinates of a Missing Vertex Find the coordinates of each missing vertex. Quadrilateral LMNP is a parallelogram. Find the coordinates of N. MN must be vertical and the same length as LP. (1, 0)
Check It Out: Example 2 Find the coordinates of each missing vertex. Triangle ABC has a right angle at B and AB = 3. Find one set of possible coordinates for A. Since BC is horizontal, AB must be vertical for the triangle to have a right angle at B. (1, 1) or (1, –5)
The midpointof a segment is the point that divides the segment into two congruent segments.
Additional Example 3: Finding the Coordinates of a Midpoint Find the coordinates of midpoint AB. Use the formula. The endpoints are A (0, 2) and B(3, 5). Simplify. The coordinates of the midpoint M is
Check It Out: Example 3 Find the coordinates of midpoint LM. Use the formula. The endpoints are L (–1, 3) and M(2, 1). Simplify. The coordinates of the midpoint M is
