Answer:D.) (-1, 1), (-1, 5), (-7, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:The length of the horizontal segment of the triangle graphed is 3.  The length of the vertical segment of the triangle graphed is 2.  Using the Pythagorean theorem, this makes the length of the missing side

2²+3²=c²

4+9 = c²

13=c²

√13 = c

This makes our side lengths 2, 3, and √13.

For choice A our vertices are (-1, 1), (-1, 4), (-6, 1).

This makes the length of the horizontal segment 5 and the length of the vertical segment 3.  This makes the missing side length

5²+3²=c²

25+9=c²

34=c²

√34 = c

This is not proportional to the triangle drawn, so it is not similar.

The vertices of the triangle in option B are (-1, 1), (-1, 5), and (-6, 1).  This makes the horizontal segment 5 units long and the vertical segment 4 units long.  This makes the missing side length

4²+5²=c²

16+25=c²

41=c²

√41=c

These are not proportional to the triangle drawn, so the triangles are not similar.

The vertices of the triangle in choice C are (-1, 1), (-1, 4) and (-7, 1).  This makes the length of the horizontal segment 6 and the length of the vertical segment 3.  This makes the missing side length

3²+6²=c²

9+36=c²

45=c²

√45=c

3√5=c

These sides are not proportional to the sides of the triangle drawn, so the triangles are not similar.

The vertices of the triangle in choice D are (-1, 1), (-1, 5) and (-7, 1).  This makes the length of the horizontal segment 6 and the length of the vertical segment 4.  This makes the missing side length

6²+4²=c²

36+16=c²

52=c²

√52=c²

2√13=c

These sides are all twice as long as the sides of the triangle drawn; this means the triangles are similar.

Please help i really need help <br> thanks

Answer:

B. 31.62

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the distance of the line using the distance formula, d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1} )^2   }. Plug the two points (-1,0) and (5,2) into the formula and solve. This gives you 6.32, then this is only one line of a pentagon, which has 5 sides, so you need to multiply. Since you are finding the perimeter, which is all of the sides added together, multiply the one side by 5. 6.32*5=31.62.
