To find the length of the vertical side, we need to calculate the difference in y-coordinates.
The y-coordinates of the given points are:
-3, -6, -10
The difference in y-coordinates between the top and bottom points (-3 and -10) is:
-10 - (-3) = -10 + 3 = 7
Therefore, the length of the vertical side is 7 centimeters.
Given the coordinates (15,−3) , (19,−6) , and (15,−10) , what would be the length of the vertical side, in centimeters?

Apologies for the mistake. Let's recalculate the length of the vertical side using the correct coordinates.
Given coordinates: (15,−3), (19,−6), and (15,−10)
We need to find the difference in the y-coordinates between the top and bottom points to determine the length of the vertical side.
The y-coordinates of the top and bottom points are -3 and -10, respectively.
Difference in y-coordinates:
-10 - (-3) = -10 + 3 = -7
Since distance cannot be negative, we take the absolute value of -7 to get the length of the vertical side:
Length of the vertical side = | -7 | = 7 centimeters
Therefore, the correct length of the vertical side is 7 centimeters. Thank you for pointing out the error.
