The length of the vertical sides can be found by subtracting the y-coordinates of the corresponding endpoints.
The vertical sides are:
- (7, -3) to (7, -8) with a length of |-3 - (-8)| = 5 cm
- (11, -4) to (11, -9) with a length of |-4 - (-9)| = 5 cm
Therefore, the length of the vertical sides of the quadrilateral is 5 cm.
Given the coordinates (7,−3), (7,−8), (11,−4), and (11,−9), what is the length of the vertical sides of the quadrilateral, in cm?(1 point)
