Parallelogram QUAD is defined by the coordinates (-2, -4), (6, -4), (11, 2), and (3, 2), respectively. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of side UA

One side is easily figured out as eight.
Working on the left and right sides,
the hypotenuse² = 6² + 5²
hypotenuse² = 36 + 25 = 61
hypotenuse = 7.8102496759
(I'm assuming this is the side you need calculated).
