Respuesta :

The area of the rectangle would be 21 units.

Answer:

The area of rectangle is 42 square unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a rectangle shown in diagram.

We need to find the area of rectangle.

[tex]\text{Area of rectangle }=L\times B[/tex]

First we have to find the L and B of the rectangle.

Using coordinate system find the coordinate of vertex of rectangle.

Using distance formula to find the distance of leg of rectangle.

A(2,-1)     B(9,-8)     C(12,-5)  

Distance formula:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]L=AB=\sqrt{(2-9)^2+(-1+8)^2}=7\sqrt2[/tex]

[tex]B=BC=\sqrt{(12-9)^2+(-5+8)^2}=3\sqrt2[/tex]

[tex]\text{Area of rectangle }=7\sqrt2\times 3\sqrt2 = 42\text{ Square Unit}[/tex]

Hence, The area of rectangle is 42 square unit.
