you switch from bio to history to math real quick son
this is math
Use the distance formula to find the length of each side. Then add up all the sides.
Review this link: http://www.purplemath.com/modules/distform.htm Then use the distance formula for each segment. After each distance is determined, add them (all four) and that will be the perimeter.

guys
Quit guessing and start working the problem.

Check your work and see if there is an error.
What did you get for the length of the segment AB ?
Help is what you will get. But it looks like you just want an answer rather than learn how to solve.
Just in case you return I will show you how to get the distance of the segment AB. The endpoints for segment AB are (-4,3) and (0,2). Using the distance formula which was explained in the link I furnished, and also in your study material we would have this equation:\[D = \sqrt{(-4-0)^{2 }+(3-2)^{2}}\]\[\sqrt{(-4)^{2}+1^{2}}=\sqrt{17}\]
Theres one, now just three more to go. Do the rest in a similar manner, the perimeter will be their sum (all four segments.
