Answer 8

try plotting these points - doesn't look like a square to me
Please check your question.

Answer 9

Here is a plot. To find the area, I would use the distance formula to find the length of one side, and then use
A= x*x , where x is the length of a side.

Answer 10

oh yes - my mistake in plotting!!

Answer 11

Another way to find the area is notice you can form the triangle ABC
the area of a triangle is 1/2 base* height
let the base be the side AC and the height be the distance from point B straight "down" to the base.
because the other triangle AB'C is exactly the same size, double the area of one of the triangles to get the total area of the square.

Answer 12

A third way to find the area is count up the number of "boxes" that make up the square ABCB'
