Question
Write the coordinates of the vertices of a rectangle whose length and breadth are $5$ and $3$ units respectively, one vertex at the origin, the longer side lies on the $x$-axis and one of the vertices lies in the third quadrant.

Answer

Given length of rectangle $=5$ units Given breadth of rectangle $=3$ units One vertex is at origin i.e.., $D(0,0)$ and one of the other vertices lies in III quadrant. So the Length of the rectangle is $5$ units in the negative direction of $X$ -axis and then vertex is $A (-5,0)$.Also the breadth of the rectangle is $3$ units in the negative direction of $Y$ -axis and then vertex is $C(0,-3)$. The fourth vertex $B$ is $(5,-3)$.
