Question

Rectangle ABCD is graphed in coordinate plane. The following are the vertices of the rectangle:A(-4,-2) B(-2 -2) C(-2, 7) and D(-4, 7) what is the area of rectangle ABCD

Answer 1

Answer:

  18 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

By counting grid squares or finding the difference of horizontal and vertical coordinates, you can determine that the rectangle is 2 units wide by 9 units tall. The area is the product of these dimensions:

  A = LW = (9 units)(2 units) = 18 units^2
