x + 2 y = 4

X- intercept at y=0,  ie, at A(4,0)
Y-intercept  at x=0,  ie., at B(0,2)

Length of line segment AB = √(2²+4²)  = 2√5
Let the square formed be ABCD.

Area of the square ABCD on AB : 20.

Slope of AB = - 1/2
Slope of BC = 2 = tanФ    => SinФ = 2/√5
    and Length of BC = AB = 2√5
Ordinate at C :  BC sinФ = 4
 Abscissa at C:  BC CosФ + 4 = 2/5 +  4 = 22/5 
   So point  C = (22/5 , 4)

Similarly,  Point D = (BC cosФ, 2 + BCsinФ)
     = (2/5 , 4)
