Q:

The length of a rectangle is shown belowOn a coordinate grid from negative 6 to positive 6 on the x-axis and on the y-axis, two points A and B are shown. The point A is on ordered pair negative 2, 3, and the point B is on ordered pair 3, 3.If the area of the rectangle to be drawn is 30 square units, where should points C and D be located, if they lie vertically below A and B, to make this rectangle?

Accepted Solution

A:
Since the distance between A and B is 5 divide 30 by 5 to get 6 so C and D are 6 down from A and B at (-2,-3) and (3,-3)
