Polygons and the Coordinate Plane
Rectangles and squares are four-sided polygons with four right angles.
In a rectangle, opposite sides are equal in length.
A square is a special type of rectangle that has all four sides equal in length.
3
Multiple Choice
Can you guess the length of the shortest side of the rectangle?
3 units
4 units
9 units
2 units
4
Open Ended
How did you calculate the distance of the shortest side of the rectangle?
5
Yes, you can just count.
Most times, you will count correctly. But here is a second way. Yes, it is simple.
6
Same quadrants, change coordinates to absolute value then find the difference. Different quandrants change the coordinates to absolute value then find the sum.
Take one minute to memorize. You will write it down in the next slide.

What is the distance between A (5,-2) and B(5,4)? Different Quadrants
Determine which coordinate is the same (x or y) and cross it out.
Circle the number that is different in both coordinate pairs.
Find the absolute value of each number (write an expression) |-2| |4|
Find the sum. |-2| +|4|
Distance=6
10
What is the distance between B(5,4) and C (8,4)? Same Quadrants
Determine which coordinate is the same (x or y) and cross it out.
Circle the number that is different in both coordinate pairs.
Find the absolute value of each number (write an expression) |8| |5|
Find the difference. |8|-|5|
