Answer:
Area = 30 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's try to visualize the problem:
(-2, 4) • | • (3, 4)
|
|
___________|___________
|
(-2, -2) • | • (3, -2)
|
|
Let's find the side lengths;
(-2) - 3 = |-5|, the Base of the rectangle is 5 units.
4 - (-2) = 6, the Height of the rectangle is 6 units.
The formula for area of a rectangle is B × H.
5 × 6 = 30, so the area of the rectangle is 30 units.
