Explain why it is convenient to place a right triangle on the grid as shown when writing a coordinate proof.

The hypotenuse of the right triangle is easy to identify.

The side lengths are often easier to find because you are using zeros in your expressions.

It is easier to dilate the figure on the coordinate plane.

Both legs have the same length when you place the triangle on the x- and y-axes.
