Question

The vertices of a rectangle are at (-1, -5). (3, -5), (3, - 7), and (-1, -7)

What is the length of the shorter side of the rectangle? Enter your answer in the box.


__Units​

Answer 1

2 units the vertices are (-1,-5) etc… so the only correct answer could be 2 if all sides of the rectangle are equal except the shorter side

Answer 2

2 units

Explanation:

It helps to graph it. You can also tell because -5 and -7 are 2 units apart while -1 and 3 are 4 units so the rectangle is 2x4.
