1. The problem asks to find dots on a grid to form a quadrilateral with one of these properties: a perpendicular bisector forming a right angle, equal sides, or no parallel sides.
2. To solve this, recall that:
- A perpendicular bisector of a segment is a line that divides it into two equal parts at a right angle.
- A quadrilateral with equal sides is a rhombus or square.
- A quadrilateral with no parallel sides is called a general irregular quadrilateral.
3. Step 1: Identify four dots that form a quadrilateral.
4. Step 2: Check if any two sides are equal in length by calculating distances between points using the distance formula $$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$$.
5. Step 3: Check if any side has a perpendicular bisector by verifying if the midpoint of a side is equidistant from the endpoints and if the adjacent sides meet at a right angle (90 degrees). Use the slope formula $$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$$ and check if the product of slopes of adjacent sides is $$-1$$.
6. Step 4: To find a quadrilateral with no parallel sides, ensure no two sides have equal slopes.
7. For part (b), to form a regular polygon with more than 3 sides on a dotted grid, select dots equally spaced around a center point so that all sides and angles are equal.
8. For example, a regular hexagon can be formed by choosing six dots equally spaced in a circular pattern.
Final answer: By applying these steps, you can identify the required quadrilaterals and regular polygons on the given grids.
