Matilda measures the perimeter of her bedroom to determine how many feet of border she needs to go around the tops of the walls.
Two walls are each 96 inches long, and two walls are each 3 yards long. She pays $30 for border that costs $1 per foot. What are steps that you should take to determine if Matilda bought the correct amount of border? Select all that apply. Please tell me all answers that apply
The distance between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) = √((x1-x2)2+(y1-y2)2) Distance between A and B = √((5--2)2+(4-1)2) = √(72+32) = √(49+9) = √58 = 7.62 Distance between A and C = √(12+82) = √65 = 8.06 Point B is closer to A. Another method to solve this problem is to draw the points on a graph paper and measure distance with a ruler.
