Q5 of 184 Page 11

Draw the triangle whose vertices are (2, 3), (-4, 2) and (3, -1).

It is easy to draw a triangle when it’s all vertices are given. We have to just locate all the given points on the graph and join them with a line as shown in the graph below.


Step 1. Locate all the vertices on the graph.



Step 2. Joins all the vertices with a line and it will form a triangle.
