Question

(Summarize) If given only the coordinates of the vertices, describe a process you could use to find the perimeter and area of a square.

Answer 1

Use the distance formula to find the length of any of the 4 sides, as they are all the same for a square. Length can be found using the distance formula which is:\[\sqrt{(x_{2}-x _{1})^{2}+(y _{2}-y _{1})^{2}}\]
