An illustration of a coordinate plane with four quadrants shows the x and y axes extending from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 1. A quadrilateral upper A upper B upper D upper C is drawn on the coordinate plane. The coordinates of the quadrilateral are as follows: upper A left parenthesis negative 7 comma 7 right parenthesis, upper B left parenthesis negative 3 comma 6 right parenthesis, upper D left parenthesis negative 3 comma 1 right parenthesis, and upper C left parenthesis negative 7 comma 1 right parenthesis.

To find the length of BD, we need to calculate the difference in y-coordinates between points B and D.

The y-coordinate of point B is 6, and the y-coordinate of point D is 1. So, the length of BD is 6 - 1 = 5.

Therefore, the length of BD is 5 units or 5 cm. The correct answer is:

5 cm
