The best way to explain this problem is to plot these 3 points on a graph.
\n" ); document.write( "You have 3 points & to make a rectangle you need the 4 th point which is (2,-3) which is the rectangle.
\n" ); document.write( "(2,2), (7,2), (7,-3)
\n" ); document.write( "THE X DISTANCE=7-2=5
\n" ); document.write( "THE Y DISTANCE=2+3=5
\n" ); document.write( "THE FOURTH VERTICES=(2,-3)
\n" ); document.write( "THIS RECTANCLE IS A 5 UNIT SQUARE.
\n" ); document.write( "AREA=5*5=15 ANSWER.
\n" ); document.write( "PERIMETER=4*5=20 ANSWER. \n" ); document.write( "
