To create a polygon using the coordinates \((-3, -1)\), \((-6, -5)\), and \((-1, -5)\), you would plot these points on a coordinate plane:
-
Plot the points:
- \((-3, -1)\) is located 3 units left and 1 unit down.
- \((-6, -5)\) is located 6 units left and 5 units down.
- \((-1, -5)\) is located 1 unit left and 5 units down.
-
Connect the dots:
- Draw a line from \((-3, -1)\) to \((-6, -5)\).
- Then draw a line from \((-6, -5)\) to \((-1, -5)\).
- Finally, draw a line from \((-1, -5)\) back to \((-3, -1)\).
The resulting shape will be a polygon. If you're looking for the polygon formed by those coordinates, it’s a triangle or a disconnected shape depending on where the points are relative to each other. Remember that the order of plotting will affect the shape.
