On a Cartesian coordinate plane, points (2,1) and (3,4) are adjacent points on a square. What is the area of the square?
I'm assuming that you mean "adjacent vertices"
If so.....the square of the distance between these points is the area of the square...so...
Area = (2-3)^2 + (4 -1)^2 = 1 + 3^2 = 10 units^2
Thank you! For whatever reason when I tried to answer this question, I got that each side of the square equaled 3.16 which was wrong :)
