Question

1. given the points p(-7,1), q(5,-5), r(-1,-8), and s(6,-1), do the following:

(a) plot the four points and draw $overline{pq}$ and $overline{rs}$.
(b) mark the intersection of $overline{pq}$ and $overline{rs}$ at point t. give the coordinates of t below.
(3,-4)
(c) name one linear angle pair drawn on the diagram.
(d) name one vertical angle pair drawn on the diagram.
∠pts

Explanation:

Step1: Plot the points

On the coordinate - plane, for point \(P(-7,1)\), move 7 units to the left of the origin and 1 unit up. For \(Q(5, - 5)\), move 5 units to the right and 5 units down. For \(R(-1,-8)\), move 1 unit to the left and 8 units down. For \(S(6,-1)\), move 6 units to the right and 1 unit down. Then draw the line - segments \(\overline{PQ}\) and \(\overline{RS}\).

Step2: Find the intersection

To find the intersection point \(T\) of \(\overline{PQ}\) and \(\overline{RS}\) (if not given visually), we can use the equations of the lines passing through \(P,Q\) and \(R,S\). But since the coordinates of \(T\) are given as \((3,-4)\), we accept it.

Step3: Identify linear - angle pair

A linear - angle pair is a pair of adjacent angles whose non - common sides are opposite rays. For example, \(\angle PT R\) and \(\angle QTS\) form a linear - angle pair.

Step4: Identify vertical - angle pair

Vertical angles are the non - adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines. If we assume the intersection of \(\overline{PQ}\) and \(\overline{RS}\) at \(T\), a vertical - angle pair could be \(\angle PTR\) and \(\angle QTS\) or \(\angle PTS\) and \(\angle RTQ\). Given \(\angle PTS\) as an answer for vertical - angle pair, it is correct as it is one of the vertical - angle pairs formed by the intersection of \(\overline{PQ}\) and \(\overline{RS}\) at \(T\).

Answer:

(a) Points plotted and line - segments drawn as described.
(b) Intersection point \(T=(3,-4)\)
(c) \(\angle PTR\) and \(\angle QTS\) (one possible linear - angle pair)
(d) \(\angle PTS\) (as given, a valid vertical - angle pair)
