a rectange has the sides (-6, -3) (4, -3) (-6, 8) (4, 8) on a graph. what is the diagonal of the rectangle

Answer 1

To find the diagonal of the rectangle, we need to find the distance between two opposite corners of the rectangle.

Using the distance formula, the distance between the points (-6, -3) and (4, 8) is:

√[ (4 - (-6))² + (8 - (-3))² ]
= √[ 10² + 11² ]
= √[ 100 + 121 ]
= √221

Therefore, the diagonal of the rectangle is √221 units.
