Answer: 120 feet.

Explanation:

1. Plot the given coordinates, as you can see in the graph attached.

3. The formula for calculate the perimeter of a rectangle is:


P=2L+2W

Where
L is the length and
W is the width.

4. You need to calculate the lenght and the width of the rectangle. Then, you can apply the formula for calculate the distance between two points:

- The distance of the lenght AD is:


d_(AD)=\sqrt{(48-20)^(2)+(41-20)^(2)}=35ft

- The distance of the width CD is:


d_(CD)=\sqrt{(48-33)^(2)+(41-61)^(2)}=25ft

5. Then, the perimeter is:


P=2(35ft)+2(25ft)=120ft
