I connected all of the points and formed a strange looking figure. I could not identify the figure, but I divided it into 3 rectangles. I calculated the area of each rectangle and added them up:
A1 = (-2-(-4))(2-(-4)) = 12.
A2 = (1-(-2))(4-(-4)) = 24.
A3 = (3-1)(3-(-4)) = 14.
At = 12 + 24 + 14 = 50 Sq. Units.
Sorry, but I can't draw the graph online.
Plot and connect the given points in order and determine the area of the resulting figure.
(-4,2),(-2,2),(-2,4),(1,4),(1,3),(3,3),(3,-4),(-4,-4)
