AI Thread Summary
To graph the points (8,0), (4,-4), (-4,4), and (-8,0) in MATLAB, the user needs to connect the first two points and the last two points on the same graph. The correct commands involve using the 'plot' function for each pair of points. The user should use "hold on" to ensure both sets of points are displayed together. The commands would be: plot([4 8], [-4 0]) for the first pair and plot([-8 -4], [0 4]) for the second pair. This will effectively create the desired graph with both connections visible.

Physics news on Phys.org
plot([4 8], [-4 0])
plot([-8 -4], [0 4])

remember to hold graphs if you are entering commands individually.
 
thank you!
