C. 18 units ^2
\n" ); document.write( "The diagonals are 6 units long ie from (-4,2) to (2,2) and from
\n" ); document.write( "(-1,5 to -1,-1)
\n" ); document.write( "the diagonal is a hypotenuse.
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+x^2=36
\n" ); document.write( "2x^2=36
\n" ); document.write( "x^2=18
\n" ); document.write( "area =x^2
\n" ); document.write( "therefore area=18
\n" ); document.write( "
