Question
In rectangle OABC; point O is the origin, OA = 10 units along x-axis and AB = 8 units. Find the co-ordinates of vertices A, B and C.
Solution
Given that in rectangle OABC; point O is the origin and OA = 10 units along x-axis therefore we get O(0,0) and A(0,0). Also it is given that AB = 8 units. Therefore we get B(10,8) and C(0,8)
After plotting the points O(0,0), A(10,0), B(10,8) and C(0,8) on a graph paper; we get the above rectangle OABC and the required co-ordinates of the vertices are A(10,0), B(10,8) and C(0,8)
