Figure ABCDE has vertices A(−2, 3), B(2, 3), C(5, −2), D(0, −4), and E(−2, −2). Plot the points on your own coordinate grid and connect the points in alphabetical order. Decompose Figure ABCDE into rectangles and triangles. Part A: How many triangles and rectangles did you make? (1 point) Part B: Use Figure ABCDE created on your coordinate grid to find the lengths, in units, of Sides AB and AE. (4 points) Part C: What is the area of Figure ABCDE? Show your work. (5 points)

thats a rough drawing of the 5 sided figure

you have 1 rectangle and 2 triangles.
Sorry my internet is being slow
AB and AE are easy to find they are the differences in the x coordiantes and y coordinates respectively so AB = 2 - (-2) and AE = 3 - (-2)
Area of the rectangle = AB * AE
