Rectangle A, B, C, D is graphed in the coordinate plane. The following are the vertices of the rectangle: A(-1, -6),A(−1,−6),A, left parenthesis, minus, 1, comma, minus, 6, right parenthesis, comma B(-1,7)B(−1,7)B, left parenthesis, minus, 1, comma, 7, right parenthesis, C(1, 7)C(1,7)C, left parenthesis, 1, comma, 7, right parenthesis, and D(1, -6)D(1,−6)D, left parenthesis, 1, comma, minus, 6, right parenthesis.

Given these coordinates, what is the length of side ABABA, B of this rectangle?

Answer:

  13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Points A(-1, -6) and B(-1, 7) both lie on the vertical line x=-1. That means the distance between them is the difference of their y-coordinates:

__

  By -Ay = 7 -(-6) = 13

Segment AB is 13 units long.
