Question

A line passes through (6, 0) and (0, 6) and an another line passes through (- 3, 0) and (0, – 3). What are the points to be joined to get a trapezium?

Answer 1

In a trapezium, there are 2 opposite sides that are parallel. The other opposite sides are non-parallel.
Now, let us approximately plot the points for our understanding [no need of graph sheet]

1. Plot the points (0, 6), (6, 0), (-3, 0) & (0, – 3)
2. Join (0, 6) & (6, 0)
3. Join (-3, 0) & (0, -3)
4. We find that the lines formed by joining the points are parallel lines.
5. So, for forming a trapezium, we should join (0, 6), (-3, 0) & (0, -3), (6, 0)
