please help! fan & medal! Find the perimeter of a quadrilateral with vertices at C (−1, 1), D (3, 4), E (6, 0), F (2, −3). Round your answer to the nearest hundredth when necessary.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

LETS CHEAT!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

want to do it the slow donkey way?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how you been?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I took an educated guess of 20 units

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you are going to guess you might as well cheat and get it right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

go with 16 i guess it is closer to 17 than 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you, could you help me on others?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure`

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this the famous FLVS i keep hearing about?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. it sucks so much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i know it sure does

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i keep seeing a lot of sucky questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i have to?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lololol I really suck at this crap. depresses me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[4\sqrt2+\sqrt5+\sqrt{29}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so no \(13.27\) or \(13.3\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me check i am beginning to like this less and less

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im sorry ( /. )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok not really i like to help you hold on a second

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you're the best

OpenStudy (anonymous):

from 2 to 7 is 5 units \(\frac{3}{4}\times 5=\frac{15}{4}=3.75\) so you add that to 2 and te get \(5.75\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you guess on that one too?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

btw you see it was not really that hard, was it? is it clear more or less how i got it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I guess on a lot of stuff because I just don't get stuff. but it makes a lot of sense when you say it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

glad to help got more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I need to get some checked

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok another pita but we can do it too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh? lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets work it it out you and me, this one is easy, but you have the wrong answer from 3 to 11 is how many units?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pita = pain in the a$%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is where you are suppose to say 8, from 3 to 11 is 8 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and the ratio is 3:5 so out of that 8, CE gets 3, DE gets 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

conveniently in this case the total was 8 so it is easy to divide in three and five equal parts, namely one each so what is 3+3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whew

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first three was the x coordinate the second was because we had to go 3 more units

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't get it ): I was wrong?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is 6 you had something else

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets go back from 3 to 11 is 8 units the ratio is 3 to 5, so the first segment gets 3 the second one gets 5 3 to the right of 3 is 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh okay, sorry I wasn't paying attention

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just like a student...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

): I know.... its hard consintrating in this house right now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they should make you go to school like everyone else

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could you explain this to me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes in real simple plain inglish take the average of the y coordinates 4 and 10 ie. add them up, divide by 2 you can do it in your head

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me know when you get 7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you make me feel stupid..... haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no you are not born knowing this, but it is easy once you know it right?q

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't understand ):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

me nether give me a minute

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you don't know how much I appreciate you taking your time out to help me.. thank you so much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are welcome

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as to your answer, i know how to get the area, but not with that altitude business

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the way i know how to compute it though you might not be ready for suffice to say it is 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im scared to submit this... lmao I don't doubt your help. im just scared. im always like this

OpenStudy (anonymous):
