The length of the base of the quadrilateral can be found by calculating the distance between the points (3, -2) and (11, -2).
Using the distance formula, where:
d = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Plugging in the coordinates, we get:
d = √((11 - 3)^2 + (-2 - (-2))^2)
d = √((8)^2 + (0)^2)
d = √(64)
d = 8 cm
Therefore, the length of the base of the quadrilateral is 8 cm.
Given the coordinates (3, −2), (11, −2), (3, −4), and (11, −4), what is the length
of the base of the quadrilateral, in cm? (1 point)
