Recall the classification of quadrilaterals.
Graph:
Name: Square
Let's plot the given points on a coordinate plane and graph the quadrilateral.
To determine the most precise name for our quadrilateral, let's review the classification of quadrilaterals.
| Quadrilateral | Definition |
|---|---|
| Parallelogram | Both pairs of opposite sides are parallel |
| Rhombus | Parallelogram with four congruent sides |
| Rectangle | Parallelogram with four right angles |
| Square | Parallelogram with four congruent sides and four right angles |
| Trapezoid | Quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides |
| Isosceles Trapezoid | Trapezoid with legs that are congruent |
| Kite | Quadrilateral with two pairs of consecutive sides congruent and no opposite sides congruent |
We can see that the quadrilateral has two pairs of parallel sides and four right angles. The figure is either a rectangle or a square. To check, we can find the lengths of its sides. Let's count the units in each side.
We can tell that the side lengths of all sides are equal. This means that our quadrilateral is a square.
