Answer: E. 150 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:A polygon is figure with at least 3 straight or definite sides or typically 5 or more straight sides.

Here the polygon we are given is a rectangle.

We know that,

Area of a rectangle = l x w

so we need to measure the length and width of the rectangle to find its area.

If we look closely, we can see the length of the rectangle above the x-axis is 8 units and the length below the x-axis 7 units which makes a total og 15 units.

Answer:

D) 150 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula: d = (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2

A = L x W = 15/-2x 5/-2

= 150
