what is the formula for the perimeter of the triangle @angela210793 @hartnn

hartnn (hartnn):

sum of sides

OpenStudy (hba):

that cannot be :(

hartnn (hartnn):

perimeter of any polygon is sum of its sides.

OpenStudy (hba):

The vertices are L=(1,5),M=(-3,-3) and N=(3,1)

hartnn (hartnn):

find sides from that ....

OpenStudy (hba):

So i got (1/3,1) < which looks wrong :(

hartnn (hartnn):

distance formula

OpenStudy (hba):

Oh ok ok got it :)

OpenStudy (hba):

Slight confusion sorry :(

hartnn (hartnn):

did u take average ?

OpenStudy (hba):

wait i am solving

OpenStudy (hba):

So, root(20),root(20) and root (34) what next ? @hartnn

hartnn (hartnn):

recheck....

OpenStudy (hba):

Lol i do not have the power to recheck

hartnn (hartnn):

root 20, root 80, root 52 thats what i got....

OpenStudy (hba):

Ok what next ?

hartnn (hartnn):

adding those 3 will give u perimeter...

OpenStudy (hba):

So we add them up but we do not divide them by 3

hartnn (hartnn):

no, don't divide perimeter = sum of sides

OpenStudy (hba):

Oh Thanks a ton @hartnn

hartnn (hartnn):

welcome ^_^

OpenStudy (hba):
