Coordinate Geometry Proofs Challenge

The video tutorial introduces coordinate geometry proofs, focusing on proving a quadrilateral is a rectangle and not a square. It covers plotting points, calculating slopes and distances, and proving perpendicularity. The tutorial concludes with a practice problem to reinforce learning.

What is the first step in a coordinate geometry proof?

• Calculate the slopes of the sides

• Determine the angles

• Find the midpoints

• Plot the points
