Answer: 10 units


The points are (-3,4) and (3,-4)

We can use the distance formula for this, which is

d=√((x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²)

So we can assign
X1 as -3
Y1 as 4
X2 as 3
Y2 as -4

Substitute these in the formula

d=√(3-(-3))²+((-4)-4)²

d=√(6)²+(-8)²

d=√(36+64)

d=√100

d= 10

Answer: 8units by 5units

Step-by-step explanation: I started with the length counted from the point (-3,4) counting the number of squares that go to point (3,-4) giving me 8squares/units

then the width I used the same method getting 5squares/units
