Rectangle ABCD is graphed in the 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?
FIRST DRAW ON A COORDINATE PLANE IF NEEDED. THE LENGTH OF THE RECTANGLE IS 2 UNITS, THE WIDTH OF IT IS 9 UNITS. NEXT MULTIPLY THE LENGTH BY WIDTH 2*9=18 units.
