Answer:

The length of the side of the polygon is
36\ units

Explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to


d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^(2)+(x2-x1)^(2)}

we have


A(7,-18)\\B(7,18)

substitute the values


d=\sqrt{(18+18)^(2)+(7-7)^(2)}


d=\sqrt{(36)^(2)+(0)^(2)}


d=36\ units
