Find the perimeter of the shape below: (attached) 7.4 units 8.9 units 11.2 units 13.6 units

OpenStudy (triciaal):

to get the perimeter add all the lengths going around the shape. you can use the distance formula (pythagorean theorem) to calculate the lengths not given

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Okay.... TU + UR + RS + ST

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

TU + UR + RS + ST the TU and UR are obvious. RS, 1²+5²=(RS)² ST, 2²+4²=(ST)²

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

3 + 2 + √26 + √20

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you got it from here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Very confused but thanks anyways

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

how are you confused, what's not clear? Ask please...

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

My bad actually for Sr, it is 1²+4²=(SR)²

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

TU + UR + RS + ST 3 + 2 + √17 + √20

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Sorry for the mistake

OpenStudy (triciaal):

ut = 4 st = rt of (4^2 + 2^2) ur = 2 sr = rt of (4^2 + 1^2) perimeter = st + tu + ur + rs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i got 13.6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that right?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

sorry ut should be 3 not 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh okay, so it's 13.6?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

3 + rt 20 +rt 17 + 2 = 4.47 + 4.12 + 5 = 13.59 = yes
