Question

Find the perimeter of ABCD Find the area of Area

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (1, 3)

B = (3, 6)

C = (9, 2)

D = (7, -1)

the distance between 2 points is given by the Pythagoras equation based on the coordinate differences as legs of virtual right-angled triangles.

AD for example we get from

AD² = (7-1)² + (-1 - 3)² = 6² + (-4)² = 36 + 16 = 52

AD = sqrt(52) = sqrt(4×13) = 2×sqrt(13)

and AB we get from

AB² = (3-1)² + (6-3)² = 2² + 3² = 4 + 9 = 13

AB = sqrt(13)

the perimeter of the given rectangle is

2×sqrt(52) + 2×sqrt(13) = 2×2×sqrt(13) + 2×sqrt(13) =

= 6×sqrt(13) = 21.63330765...

and the area of the rectangle is

2×sqrt(13)×sqrt(13) = 2×13 = 26
