Answer: 1

Explanation:

the two points given tell us the following information:

the difference in y coordinates, (4), will be the width of the rectangle

the difference in x coordinates, (3), will be the length of the rectangle.

haha! actually the width is the length and the length is the width lol.

anyways, the length is 1 longer than the width, since 4 -3 = 1.
