If the points shown in the table are graphed on the coordinate plane and the points are connected with line segments, which geometric figure will be formed?
x: -8, -5, 5, 8
y: -3, 4, 4, -3
A. a square
B. a rectangle
C.A parallelogram
D.a trapezoid
B. a rectangle
To determine the geometric figure formed by connecting the points listed in the table, we can plot the points on a coordinate plane and examine the resulting shape.
Plotting the points (x, y) from the table, we have:
(-8, -3), (-5, 4), (5, 4), (8, -3)
After connecting the points with line segments, we can observe that the shape formed is a parallelogram.
Therefore, the correct answer is C. A parallelogram.
