1) It's best to draw out a picture of a rectangle and label each corner with the coordinates given: Let's say (-5, 2) is point A, (-5, -2 1/3) is point B, (2 1/2, 2) is point C, and (2 1/2, -2 1/3) is point D.
2) That being said, line AB is one side of the rectangle, BC is another, CD is another, and lastly, AD is the fourth side.
3) We can use the distance formula and plug in the coordinates of each line to find how long every side is. Then you just need to solve it.
For example: if I want to find how long side AB is, I would use the point A (-5, 2) and B (2 1/2, 2) and plug them into the distance formula, where (-5, 2) is (x1, x2) and (2 1/2, 2) is (x2, y2) and solve that.
4) Repeat this process with side BC, CD, and AD, and add the results together. This will be your final answer; the perimeter of the rectangle.
Answer: =17x
Step-by-step explanation: hope this help, hope you understand it too.
Let's simplify step-by-step.
2x+5x+10x
Combine Like Terms:
=2x+5x+10x
=(2x+5x+10x)
=17x
Yep that looks about right. I would say that works. Good job. You're doing great
Subtract the one value from 180 and then divide that number by 2 to get the 2 values. So if one side is 90, they other sides would be 45 each
