<h2>Answer:</h2>

Sample response: Plot each point in the coordinate plane. Find the distance between points to find that the base is 3 units and the height is 12 units. Apply the area formula, A = bh. 3 x 12 = 36 square units.

  1. Plot each point on the coordinate plane.
  2. Find the base of the rectangle, 3 units.
  3. Find the height, 12 units
  4. Apply the area formula to find area equals 36 square units.

the formula for area of a rectangle is

Area = length x width

since both the length and the width of the rectangle lie on the same x and y axis, we can find the distance between the width and the distance between the length by subtracting

(-4,9) (-4,-3)

these points lie on the same x axis, so they create a vertical line

9-(-3) = 12

12 units is the distance between them

(-4,-3) (-1,-3)

these points lie on the same y axis, so they create a horizontal line

-1-(-4) = 3

3 units is the distance between them

now that we have the length and the width, we can find the area

A = 12 x 3

A = 36 units²
