Take the x distance between P and Q and divide by 4 (PR,RS,ST,TQ).
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5Bd%5D=12-4=8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5Bd%5D%2F4=2\"
\n" ); document.write( "So the x step between points is 2.
\n" ); document.write( "So starting at 4, it would be 6, 8, 10, and 12.
\n" ); document.write( "Similarly with y.
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%5Bd%5D=6-2=4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%5Bd%5D%2F4=1\"
\n" ); document.write( "So starting at \"y=2\", it would be 3,4,5, and 6.
\n" ); document.write( "So the points are,
\n" ); document.write( "P:(4,2)
\n" ); document.write( "R:(6,3)
\n" ); document.write( "S:(8,4)
\n" ); document.write( "T:(10,5)
\n" ); document.write( "Q:(12,6)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
