Answer:

Use the distance formula to find the length of each side, and then add the lengths.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the vertices of a quadrilateral in the coordinate plane.

We have to find the perimeter of the figure.

For doing so, we have to find the length of all the sides of a quadrilateral

The length of a line segment joining points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by the distance formula: $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}$

after finding length of all the sides, we add the length of each side to get the perimeter.

Hence, the correct option is:

Use the distance formula to find the length of each side, and then add the lengths.

Which is the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form? (-1, 2) and (1, -4)

Natalka [10]

1. Find the slope using the slope formula.
$\frac{2 - ( - 4)}{ - 1 - 1} = \frac{2 + 4}{ - 2} = - \frac{6}{2} = - \frac{3}{1} = - 3$
2. Plug that slope and either point into an equation in slope-intercept form and solve for b.
$2 = - 3( - 1) + b \\ 2 = 3 + b \\ - 1 = b$
3. Now write your answer as a slope-intercept form equation
$y = - 3x - 1$
