Answer:
The answer to your question is: 14 + 2√40 = 26.6 units
Explanation:
Data
A ( -5, 4) B (-3, -2) C (4, -2) D (2, 4)
Formula
d = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
Perimeter = dAB + dBC + dCD + dAD
Process
dAB = √(-3 + 5)² + (-2 - 4)²
dAB = √(2)² + (-6)²
dAB = √4 + 36
dAB = √40 units
dBC = √(4 + 3)² + (-2 + 2)²
dBC = √(7)²
dBC = √49
dBC = 7 units
dCD = √(2 - 4)² + (4 + 2)²
dCD = √(2)² + (6)²
dCD = √40 units
dAD = √(2 + 5)² + (4 - 4)²
dAD = √49
dAD = 7 units
Perimeter = √40 + 7 + √40 + 7
Perimeter = 14 + 2√40 = 26.6 units
