Answer:

BD = 17 units

Step-by-step explanation:

BD is the hypotenuse of right triangle BCD, so can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The opposite sides of a rectangle are the same length, so DC = 8. The theorem tells us

... BD² = DC² +BC² = 8² +15² = 289

... BD = √289 = 17 . . . units

The coordinates of a rectangle, LMNO, are L(- 1,3), M(2,3), N(2, - 5), and 0(- 1,- 5).

Answer:

length = 8; width = 3

perimeter = 22

area = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

L(- 1,3), M(2,3)

LM = |-1 - 2| = 3

M(2,3), N(2, - 5)

MN = |-5 - 3| = 8

length = 8; width = 3

perimeter = 2(L + W) = 2(8 + 3) = 22

area = LW = 8 × 3 = 24
