A certain square is to be drawn on a coordinate plane. One of the vertices must be on the origin, and the square is to have an area of 100. If all coordinates of the vertices must be integers, how many different ways can this square be drawn?

A. 4
B. 6
C. 8
D. 10
E. 12

One point is at the origin.
The distance between another vertex and the origin is 10.
(x-0)^2 + (y-0)^2 = 10^2
x^2 + y^2 = 100
(x,y) = (10,0) or (0,10) or (-10,0) or (0,-10) or (8,6) or (6,8) or (-8,6) or (-6,8) or (8,-6) or (6,-8) or (-6,-8) or (-8,-6)
Each of these can form a unique square. So total number of squares that can be formed = 12

Choose E

Draw a graph and it will become more clear.

Cheers

A)4
B)6
C)8
D)10
E)12
Step 1: If area = 100, side = 10.
Step 2: Recognize that the hypotenuse of a 6-8-10 triangle is 10.
Step 3: Plot coordinate pairs using every possible combination of (±6,±8), (±8,±6),(0,±10) and (±10,0).
Step 4: Use the plotted points to draw as many squares as possible, making sure that each square has a vertex at the origin:

The figure above shows that the number of possible squares = 12.

The correct answer is E.

Hi, I can't get one point, can u please help:

from the quiestion: "One of the vertices must be on the origin..."

vertex - point at the intersection of two edges? am i wrong with this understanding? if not than posted solutions seem to be wrong...

Just wanted to point out that wording of this problem is very important..Answer 12 is correct answer as it is mentioned that "all coordinates of the vertices must be integers".

If it was not mentioned in the question then answer would have been Infinity
