Question

The coordinates of a rectangle, LMNO, are L(- 1,3), M(2,3), N(2, – 5), and 0(- 1,- 5).
a. What is the length and width of this rectangle?
b. What is the perimeter of the rectangle?
c. What is the area of the rectangle?

Answers

  1. Answer:

    length = 8; width = 3

    perimeter = 22

    area = 24

    Step-by-step explanation:

    L(- 1,3), M(2,3)

    LM = |-1 – 2| = 3

    M(2,3), N(2, – 5)

    MN = |-5 – 3| = 8

    length = 8; width = 3

    perimeter = 2(L + W) = 2(8 + 3) = 22

    area = LW = 8 × 3 = 24
