Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a square L M N O, tilted as a diamond, and a vertical rectangle P Q R S, placed side-by-side on a grid of 14 columns by 8 rows, forming square units. Square L M N O on the left side of the grid has the top vertex M at 4 units from the left of the grid and 6 units from the bottom. Right vertex L is 6 units from the left and 4 units from the bottom. Bottom vertex O is 4 units from the left and 2 units from the bottom. Left vertex N is 2 units from the left and 4 units from the bottom. All 4 sides are labeled 2.83. The square is drawn using solid lines and a closed point is marked on each vertex. Right angle symbols are marked at all vertices. Rectangle P Q R S on the right side of the grid has the base left vertex R at 9 units from the left and 2 units up from the bottom. The top left vertex S is 9 units from the left and 6 units up from the bottom. Top right vertex P is 12 units from the left and 9 units up from the bottom. The base right vertex Q is 12 units from the left and 2 units up from the bottom. Base R Q and top side S P are labeled 3. The left side and the right side are each labeled 4. The rectangle is formed using dotted lines and a closed point is marked on each vertex. Right angle symbols are marked at all vertices.
