Get intersection of polygon and point graphics

Question

Hello Community, I am trying to get the intersection point of a rectangle sketch and points from another graphics layer. How can I get the graphic points which are selected by this rectangle?

Assuming you already have a reference to the GraphicsLayer (graphicsLayer) and the rectangle (geometry) assumed to be a Polygon:

var intersectingFeatures = [];
var extent = geometry.extent;

graphicsLayer.graphics.forEach(function(graphic) {
	if (extent.intersects(graphic.geometry))
		intersectingFeatures.push(graphic);
});

//now do whatever with the intersectingFeatures array
