Determine the perimeter of quadrilateral KLMN with vertices K(-4, 2), L(2, 2), M(8, -3), and N(-10, -6).

Question

shubhamsrg · Answer

i dont think theres any shortcut here..you'll have to use distance formulla here..
4 times
here it is,,distance between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is sqrt[(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2]
hope this helps..

I did.. but I am getting...48.1

can you show your work and we might be able to see where, or if, its got an error in it

anonymous · Answer

KL=6, LM=7.8, MN=18.2, NK=16.12

amistre64 · Answer

L(2, 2), M(8, -3)
  -2-2      -2-2
---------------
    0,0      6,-5; sqrt(36+25)
                        sqrt(61) , good-ish

amistre64 · Answer

how accurate does the solution have to be?

anonymous · Answer

round it

anonymous · Answer

it doesnt have to be too acruarate

amistre64 · Answer

M(8, -3), N(-10, -6)
  10   6         10   6
-------------------
   18, 3            0,0

sqrt(324+9)
sqrt(333) = 18.248 , that one checks out too

amistre64 · Answer

N = -10,-6
-K =   4, -2
------------
         -6,-8;  sqrt(36+64)
                     sqrt(100) = 10 , that one looks off
