Question

The four points (−2, 5), (−2, −1), (6, −1), and (3, 5) are the vertices of a polygon. What is the area, in square units, of this polygon?

33 units2
39 units2
48 units2
54 units2

Answer 1

b!!!!!!

Explanation:

Answer 2

let
A (−2, 5)
B (−2, −1)
C (6, −1)
D (3, 5)

using a graph tool
see the attached figure
the polygon is a trapezoid

area of a trapezoid=(a+b)*h/2
where
a=8 units
b=5 units
h=6 units
area of a trapezoid=(8+5)*6/2-----> 39 units ²

the answer is
39 units²
