Find the area of the polygon with vertices (1, 2) (1, -5) (5, -5) (5,2)

28 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

These vertices are written in the form of their x and y coordinates. Let

A=(1,2) ; B =(1,-5) ; C =(5, -5) ; D=(5,2)

The x points are 1, 1, 5, 5

The y points are 2,-5, -5, 2

The x extremes range from 1 to 5. The length  in-between is 5-1 = 4

The y extremes range from -5 to 2. The length  in-between is 2-(-5) = 7

Area of the polygon enclosed by the coordinates

   = 4 x 7 = 28 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

In this method , the second order of polynomial ax² + bx + c is factorised and expressed as the product of two linear factors. Then each linear factor is separately solved to get the required solutions of the equation by applying zero factor property. In zero factor property , if p•q = 0 , then either p = 0 or q = 0 . In other words , if the product of two numbers is 0 , then one or both of the numbers must be 0.

Here , we have to find the two numbers that multiplies to 55 and adds to 16.
