Question
Line segments are parallel iff they lie in parallel lines. Consider the points $\mathrm{A}(3,1)$ $\mathrm{B}(6,7), \mathrm{C}(0,-5),$ and $\mathrm{D}(2,-1)$.Plot the four points and draw $\overline{A B}$ and $\overline{\mathrm{CD}}$.
Step 1
The points are A(3,1), B(6,7), C(0,-5), and D(2,-1). Show more…
