State the perimeter of each of the following triangles in simplest radical form,
1. vertices are (-4,0), (4,0), and (0,-6).
Find the distances between points.
eg, from (-4,0) to (0,-6)
d%5E2+=+diffy%5E2+%2B+diffx%5E2+=+6%5E2+%2B+4%5E2+=+52
d+=+sqrt%2852%29+=+2sqrt%2813%29
Find the other 2 sides.
Add them to get the perimeter.

2. vertices are (-sqrt of 5,0), (sqrt of 2,0), and (0, sqrt of 3)
