Write a program that takes as input two opposite corners of a rectangle: the lower left-hand corner (x1,y1) and the upper right-hand corner (x2,y2). Finally, the user is prompted for the coordinates of a third point (x, y). The program should print Boolean value True or False based on whether the point (x, y) lies within the rectangle.

This program is written using Python

Program doesn't make use of comments; however, see explanation section for detailed explanation

Program starts here

print("Enter the coordinates of the rectangle")

x1 = float(input("x1: "))

y1 = float(input("y1: "))

x2 = float(input("x2: "))

y2 = float(input("y2: "))

print("Enter the coordinates to check")

x = float(input("x: "))

y = float(input("y: "))

if (x1<=x<=x2 and y1<=y<=y2):

    print(True)

else:

    print(False)

Explanation:

This next 5 lines prompt the user to enter the coordinates of the rectangle

print("Enter the coordinates of the rectangle")

x1 = float(input("x1: "))

y1 = float(input("y1: "))

x2 = float(input("x2: "))

y2 = float(input("y2: "))

The next 3 lines prompt the user to enter the coordinate to check

print("Enter the coordinates to check")

x = float(input("x: "))

y = float(input("y: "))

The next line checks if the input coordinate is within the coordinate of the rectangle

if (x1<=x<=x2 and y1<=y<=y2):

   print(True) -> This statement is executed if the if condition is true

else:

   print(False)-> This statement is executed if the if otherwise
