Since the given coordinates are already in order,
then and two consecutive distances between the coordinates will give length and breadth,

Using distance formula,
\sqrt{ {( - 1 - 3)}^{2}  +  {(6 - 6)}^{2} }  \\  =  \sqrt{ { (- 4)}^{2} }  \\  =  \sqrt{16 }  \\  = 4
(we'll not consider the negative value since distances can't be negative)

Applying this again on 2nd and 3rd coordinates,
\sqrt{ {(3 - 3)}^{2} +  {(6 - 1)}^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{ {5}^{2} }  \\  = 5
(we'll not consider the negative value since distances can't be negative)

Since length's always gotta be greater than bredth
therefore,
the difference will be 5-4= 1 units


Hence width is 1 unit shorter than length.



Note: Unit used is "unit/s"
