k12 :O

OpenStudy (linn99123):

yea y?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

find the distance between each point and add it together to get the perimeter. K to J = 3 - (-1) = ? L to K = 4 - 2 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i also use k12

OpenStudy (linn99123):

:OOOO

OpenStudy (linn99123):

i got 2 and -4 o.o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know its funny

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

mmm close enough :P then pythagorean theorem -> a^2 + b^2 = c^2 so (2)^2 + (-4)^2 = c^2 find c

OpenStudy (linn99123):

so its 10.5

OpenStudy (linn99123):

im really bad at math

OpenStudy (linn99123):

so 2x2??

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

(2)^2 + (-4)^2 = c^2 -> c = √(4+16) = √20 so perimeter = 2 + 4 + √20

OpenStudy (linn99123):

so i solve taht and i get my answer?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

yeah plug (2 + 4 + √20) into your calculator...

OpenStudy (linn99123):

thats -20 right

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

huh?

OpenStudy (linn99123):

i got 26

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

√20 = about 4.47
