options: Use coordinates to compute perimeters of polygons and areas of triangles and rectangles, e.g., using the distance formula.

Prove the slope criteria for parallel and perpendicular lines and use them to solve geometric problems (e.g., find the equation of a line parallel or perpendicular to a given line that passes through a given point).

Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically. For example, prove or disprove that a figure defined by four given points in the coordinate plane is a rectangle; prove or disprove that the point (1, Ö3) lies on the circle centered at the origin and containing the point (0, 2).

Find the point on a directed line segment between two given points that partitions the segment in a given ratio.
problem_activity: Task
On graph paper, sketch a line segment with end points $A=(0,2)$ and $B=(0,6)$. Plot all points $C=(x,y)$ such that the triangle ABC has an area of 6 square units.
What two basic geometric theorems are needed to solve this problem?
