What is the area of the rectangle shown on the coordinate plane? enter your answer in the box. do not round at any steps. a rectangle in the coordinate plane with vertices at negative 3 comma negative 1, 1 comma 5, 4 comma 3, and 0 comma negative 3.

The first thing you should do is draw the points given in the Cartesian plane. Once you have drawn the vertices (given points) of the rectangle, you must join them and draw the rectangle. Then you must find by the Pythagorean theorem two sides of the rectangle. Finally multiply both sides to find the area. I attach the solution.

26 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider rectangle with vertices A(-3,-1), B(1,5), C(4,3) and D(0,-3). The area of the rectangle is

Find the length and the width:

Then the area of the rectangle ABCD is
