Question

Is the area of this 36 (2, 8),
(2, 2), (–4, 2), and (–4, 8).

Answer 1

yes

Explanation:

side 1

(2,8) to (2,2)

8-2 = 6 (length of this side)

side 2

(2,2) to (-4,2)

2-(-4) = 6

side 3

(-4,2) to (-4,8)

8-2 = 6

side 4

(-4,8) to (2,8)

2- (-4) = 6

* note: it doesn't matter the order of subtraction because length can't be negative (so just make sure your answer is positive) , also don't subtract the side that is constant, you will get 0, a side can not be 0 cm

to find the area of a square multiply length by width

6 x 6 = 36
