Question
Find the perimeter of a triangle with vertices A(2,5) B(2,-2) C(5,-2). Round your answer to the nearest tenth and show your work.
perimeter of a triangle = AB+AC+BC
Using the distance formula
AB = sqrt(-2-5)²+(2-2)²
AB = sqrt(-7)²
AB =sqrt(49)
AB =7
BC = sqrt(-2+2)²+(2-5)²
BC = sqrt(0+3²)
BC =sqrt(9)
BC =3
AC= sqrt(-2-5)²+(2-5)²
AC= sqrt(-7)²+3²
AC =sqrt(49+9)
AC =sqrt58
Perimeter = 10+sqrt58
Id say it 93.57 i believe
The answer is .5. That is the answer because .5/10 = .05.
