To find the length of the rectangle, we subtract the x-coordinates of points A and D:

Length = Distance between A and D = |1 - 1| = 0

To find the width of the rectangle, we subtract the y-coordinates of points A and B:
Width = Distance between A and B = |-3 - (-3)| = 0

To find the perimeter, we add up all the sides:
Perimeter = 2*Length + 2*Width
Perimeter = 2*0 + 2*0 = 0

Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle ABCD is 0 miles.

My apologies for the mistake. Let's calculate it correctly this time.

To find the length of the rectangle, we find the difference between the x-coordinates of points A and B:
Length = |5 - 1| = 4

To find the width of the rectangle, we find the difference between the y-coordinates of points A and D:
Width = |-3 - (-1)| = 2

Now that we have the length and width, we can calculate the perimeter of the rectangle by adding all sides:
Perimeter = 2*Length + 2*Width
Perimeter = 2*4 + 2*2
Perimeter = 8 + 4
Perimeter = 12

Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle ABCD is 12 miles.
