First you want to find the length and width of the rectangle using the distance formula:

d=√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

AB=√(6-3)²+ (-2 - -2)²
AB=√3² + 0
AB=√9
AB=3

BC=<span>√(6-6)²+ (5 - -2)²
BC=</span>√0 + 7²
BC=√49
BC=7

We can find the area by multiplying these two distances together:

A=(3)(7)
A=21 units²
