Figure abcd has vertices a(−3, 2), b(2, 2), c(2, −4), and d(−3, −2). what is the area of figure abcd? 5 square units 20 square units 25 square units 40 square units

The area of Figure ABCD is 25 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

A(−3, 2), B(2, 2), C(2, −4), and D(−3, −2)

step 1

Plot the figure

using a graphing tool

The figure is a trapezoid

see the attached figure

step 2

Find the area of the trapezoid

The area of the trapezoid is equal to

we have

---> difference in the y-coordinates

---> difference in the y-coordinates

---> difference in the x-coordinates

substitute

13

step-by-step explanation:

169-1=168

168-3=165

165-5=160

160-7=153

153-9=144

144-11=133

133-13=120

120-15=105

105-17=88

88-19=69

69-21=48

48-23=25

25-25=0

since it took 13times to completely subtract it hence its square root is 13

the correct answer is d

hope this
