Two quadrilaterals, labeled “A” and “B,” on square grids. Both quadrilaterals are not aligned to the horizontal or vertical gridlines. Quadrilateral “A” is on a grid that has 2 rows of 4 squares. The quadrilateral is drawn starting at the left most vertex. The second vertex is 2 squares to the right and 1 square up from the first vertex. The third vertex is 2 squares to the right and 1 square down from the second vertex. The fourth vertex is 2 squares to the left and 1 square down from the third vertex. The first vertex is 2 squares to the left and 1 square up from the fourth vertex. Quadrilateral “B” is on a grid that has 3 rows of 3 squares. The quadrilateral is drawn starting at the left most vertex. The second vertex is 1 square to the right and 2 squares up from the first vertex. The third vertex is 2 squares to the right and 1 square down from the second vertex. The fourth vertex is 1 square to the left and 2 squares down from the third vertex.
