Question

Plot the points (6, 5) , (6,-3) and (-2,-3). Join them and name the figure so formed and also find its area.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let X′OX an dY′OY be the coordinate axes. Then, the four points may be plotted as given below :

Let X’ OX and Y’ OY be the coordinate axes and mark point on it. 

Here, point P(-3,2) lies in II quadrant, Q(-7,-3) lies in III quadrant, R(6, -3) lies in IV quadrant and S(2,2) lies in I quadrant. Plotting the points on the graph paper, the figure obtained is trapezium PQRS.
