What is the perimeter of a triangular-shaped fence the city can place around the sinkhole, using integer coordinates (no decimals) on the grid? You must show all work to receive credit.

Yes. You would have to reproduce the shape on paper and try out some points. For example, the triangle could be (-10,0),(0,-1),(-6,-7) but make sure that the fences do not cut the sink hole.
