To determine which set of coordinates correctly forms a polygon on the coordinate plane using the given points (-1, -4), (3, -2), and (3, -5), we need to analyze these coordinates.
-
Plot the points:
- (-1, -4) is in the third quadrant.
- (3, -2) is in the fourth quadrant.
- (3, -5) is also in the fourth quadrant but lower than (3, -2).
-
Connecting the points:
- The points can be connected to form a triangular shape.
- The edges of the triangle would go from (-1, -4) to (3, -2) and from (3, -2) to (3, -5), and back from (3, -5) to (-1, -4).
Thus, the correct choice among the responses provided would be the one that lists the coordinates as follows:
- (-1, -4)
- (3, -2)
- (3, -5)
From your provided options, that corresponds to:
Response: "A coordinate plane with 4 quadrants shows the x and y axes ranging from negative 6 to 6 in unit increments. A triangle is formed by joining three plotted points. The coordinates of the vertices of the triangle are as follows: left parenthesis negative 1 comma negative 4 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 3 comma negative 2 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 3 comma negative 5 right parenthesis."
