An architect is designing a rectangular-shaped skyscraper. The base of the building is a rectangle, with corners at (1,3), (35,3), (35,53), and (1,53) on the coordinate plane. What is the area of the rectangle on the graph?(1 point)
units
To find the area of the rectangle, we need to find the length of the base and the height.
The length of the base is the difference in x-coordinates of the corners: 35 - 1 = 34 units.
The height of the rectangle is the difference in y-coordinates of the corners: 53 - 3 = 50 units.
To find the area, multiply the length and height: 34 * 50 = 1700 square units.
Therefore, the area of the rectangle on the graph is 1700 square units.
