Answer: 80

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula [tex]A=\frac{d_{1}d_{2}}{2}[/tex], where [tex]d_{1}, d_{2}[/tex] are the lengths of the diagonals.

By the distance formula,

[tex]AC=\sqrt{(-2-2)^{2}+(-1-7)^{2}}=\sqrt{16+64}=4\sqrt{5}\\BD=\sqrt{(-8-8)^{2}+(-1-7)^{2}}=\sqrt{256+64}=8\sqrt{5}[/tex]

So, the area is [tex]\frac{(4\sqrt{5})(8\sqrt{5})}{2}=\boxed{80}[/tex]
