Question

Plot the points $(0,0),(0,4),(3,4),(3,0)$ in graph sheet. Join the points with straight lines to make a rectangle. Find the area of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Let, $A(0,0),B(0,4),C(3,4),D(3,0)$ be the respective points.

Thus, on plotting the points, rectangle $ABCD$ is obtained.

Now, $AB=3-0=3$ units and

$AD=4-0=4$ units

Hence, area of the rectangle $ABCD=AD\times AB=3\times 4=12$ sq. units.
