Rectangle abcd is shown on the grid.
the area of rectangle abcd in square units .
anyone know how to do this math problem and if so could you take your time to explain it in the comments below you!

34 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : Write the formula for area of rectangle

Area of rectangle = length x breadth

From the graph:

AB = DC

AD = BC

Step 2 : Find the distance between AB and AD to find the length and breadth.

Coordinates : A (-1, 4), B (3, 3)

Distance between two points on AB

Formula : √(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²

= √(3-(-1))² + (3-4)²

= √17

Distance between two points on AD

Coordinates of A (-1, 4), D = (-3,-4)

Formula : √(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²

= √(-3-(-1))² + (-4-4)²

= √68

Area of rectangle = length x breadth

Area of rectangle = √17 x √68

Area of rectangle = 34

Therefore the area of rectangle = 34 square units
