: the perimeter of a figure is the sum of the lengths of its sides. the vertices of a triangle are located at X(-2,-1), Y(2,5), and Z(4,3). what is the perimeter of this triangle? round to the nearest tenth. This question is from textbook Geometry
You can put this solution on YOUR website! I ploted the point to get the triangle, then I created three right triangles and used a^2+b^2=c^2 to calculate the long side of each.
one triangle is 3x6=6.6
second is 4x6=7.2
third is 2x2=2.8
total=16.6 units
