Question

Find the perimeter of the following triangle. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. The perimeter (P) is the length around the triangle.

step 2. P = 6 + 5 + L (the length of the hypotenuse)

step 3. L = sqrt(6^2 + 5^2) = sqrt(61) where sqrt is the square root

step 4. P = 11 + sqrt(61) = 18.81.
