Q. An architect is designing a rectangular-shaped skyscraper. The base of the building is a rectangle, with corners at (1,3)(1,3), (35,3)(35,3), (35,53)(35,53), and (1,53)(1,53) on the coordinate plane. What is the area of the rectangle on the graph?
  1. Identify Length: Identify the length of the rectangle by calculating the distance between two horizontal points (1,3)(1,3) and (35,3)(35,3).\newlineCalculation: Length =351=34= 35 - 1 = 34 units.
  2. Identify Width: Identify the width of the rectangle by calculating the distance between two vertical points (1,3)(1,3) and (1,53)(1,53).\newlineCalculation: Width =533=50= 53 - 3 = 50 units.
  3. Calculate Area: Calculate the area of the rectangle using the formula: Area=Length×Width\text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width}.\newlineCalculation: Area=34×50=1700\text{Area} = 34 \times 50 = 1700 square units.
