To find the area of the rectangle ABCD, we need to calculate the length of the base and the height.
The base of the rectangle is the distance between points A and B:
Base = |x_B - x_A| = |-2 - (-5)| = 3 feet
The height of the rectangle is the distance between points B and C:
Height = |y_C - y_B| = |6 - 1| = 5 feet
Now, we can calculate the area of the rectangle:
Area = Base x Height
Area = 3 feet x 5 feet
Area = 15 square feet
Therefore, the area of rectangle ABCD is 15 square feet.
