Show what you did.
How do you know it's wrong?
What should the answer be, if you know?
========================
find the perimeter of quadrilateral STUV, where S(-5,3) T(7,-2) U(7,-6) and V(-5,-5) please help me
ST = sqrt(5^2 + 12^2) = 13
TU = sqrt(0 + 4^2) = 4
UV = sqrt(12^2 + 1) = sqrt(145)
VS = sqrt(0 + 8^2) = 8
----------
Add them
Perimeter = 25 + sqrt(145)
=~ 37.04
