Worksheet directions

Grade 6 • Review • Choose a strategy for each problem. Explain or check your thinking where requested.

Sample questions

1. A rectangle has adjacent vertices A(-2,-2), B(2,-2), C(2,2). Find the fourth vertex and explain why its coordinates combine one coordinate from A and one from C.
2. Plot A(-3,-2), B(2,-2), C(2,3), D(-3,3). Join in order and find the side lengths and area.
3. A student uses only the positive x-coordinate to measure the horizontal side of this rectangle. Explain how crossing the y-axis changes that reasoning and find the area.
4. Plot A(−3, −1), B(2, −1), C(2, 3), D(−3, 3), and join them in order. Find AB and BC, then find the rectangle’s area.
5. Read the vertices of the rectangle. Find AB and BC using coordinate differences, then compute perimeter.
