(B) $9 \sqrt{2}$ units $^{2}$
(C) 18 units $^{2}$
(D) $12 \sqrt{2}$ units $^{2}$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The area of square ABCD is (C) 18 units².

Step by step solution

– Evaluate the length of one side of the square AB

In the graph, the points of the vertices of square are given. They are $A (- 4, 2),$ $B (- 1, 5), C (2, 2)$ and $D (- 1, 1) .$

To evaluate the length of one side, we have to evaluate the distance between two points.

The distance between two points $= \sqrt{{(x_{2} - x_{1})}^{2} + {(y_{2} - y_{1})}^{2}}$

– Evaluate the distance between A and B

Therefore, the length of AB is

$\begin{matrix} = \sqrt{{(鈭� 1 + 4)}^{2} + {(5 鈭� 2)}^{2}} \\ = \sqrt{{(3)}^{2} + {(3)}^{2}} \\ = \sqrt{9 + 9} \\ = \sqrt{18} \end{matrix}$

– Evaluate the area of square ABCD

We know that all the sides of the square have same length.

Area of square $= s^{2}$

We know that $s = \sqrt{18}$ units.

Therefore, area of square ABCD is

$\begin{array}{l} = {(\sqrt{18})}^{2} \\ = \sqrt{18} 脳 \sqrt{18} \end{array}$

=18 units²
