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 opposite side lengths are equal. This means that our quadrilateral is a rectangle.
