To determine the coordinates of rectangle ABCD, we need specific information about the position of the rectangle on a coordinate plane. Let's assume you want to define rectangle ABCD with the following given vertices:
- A (x1, y1)
- B (x2, y1)
- C (x2, y2)
- D (x1, y2)
Where \( (x1, y1) \) and \( (x2, y2) \) are the bottom left and top right vertices, respectively.
-
Calculate the Length and Width:
- The length \( L \) of the rectangle can be calculated as: \[ L = |x2 - x1| \]
- The width \( W \) of the rectangle can be calculated as: \[ W = |y2 - y1| \]
-
Calculate the Area: The area \( A \) of the rectangle can be computed using the formula: \[ A = L \times W = |x2 - x1| \times |y2 - y1| \]
Example
Let’s assume rectangle ABCD has the following coordinates:
- A(1, 2)
- B(4, 2)
- C(4, 5)
- D(1, 5)
-
Length \( L \): \[ L = |4 - 1| = 3 \]
-
Width \( W \): \[ W = |5 - 2| = 3 \]
-
Area \( A \): \[ A = L \times W = 3 \times 3 = 9 \]
Thus, the area of rectangle ABCD is 9 square units.
If you have specific coordinates for rectangle ABCD, please provide them, and I can help you compute the area based on those coordinates!
