Given the points (3, 5), (8, 2), and (11, 7). Since it's a rectangle, the last point would make up the side parallel to the points (8, 2) and (11, 7). Since it's parallel, it has the same slope. The slope between these two points is +3 x-axis and +5 y - axis. Using the point (3, 5), (3+3, 5+5) means the last point (6, 10). Choice C.

I don't understand why D should be a vertex on the line parallel to points B (8,2) and C (11,7)? The way rectangles are named, BC is generally the diagnal. Although, with seeing CD as parrallel to AB, I don't arrive any of the listed options. Can someone please suggest where I could be going wrong? Thanks!
