Find the area of rectangle ABCD that has vertices point A (2,−5), point B (5,−5), point C (5,−1), and point D (2,−1) in square miles.(1 point)
The area of rectangle ABCD is _ square miles.
The length of the rectangle is 5 - 2 = 3 units and the width of the rectangle is -1 - (-5) = 4 units.
Therefore, the area of the rectangle ABCD is 3 * 4 = 12 square units or 12 square miles.
