    The Euclid City Council is developing parks with geometric shapes. One park, Descartes Park, must have a border with vertices at (1, 1) and (4, 2). The document poses questions about what the coordinates of the other vertices could be if the park was a square, nonsquare rectangle, right triangle, or parallelogram.

    1.2 Planning Parks

    The Euclid City Council is developing parks with geometric shapes. For
    some of the parks, the council gives the park designers constraints. For
    example, Descartes Park must have a border with vertices (1, 1) and (4, 2).

    Problem 1.2 Shapes on a Coordinate Grid


    Be prepared to explain your answers.
    A. Suppose the park is to be a square. What could the coordinates of
    the other two vertices be? Give two answers.
    B. Suppose the park is to be a nonsquare rectangle. What could the
    coordinates of the other two vertices be?
    C. Suppose the park is to be a right triangle. What could the
    coordinates of the other vertex be?
    D. Suppose the park is to be a parallelogram that is not a rectangle.
    What could the coordinates of the other two vertices be?
