Question

The coordinates for the vertices of a patio are (1,5) (6,5) (6,1) and (1,1). Each grid square has a length of 5 feet. Find the perimeter in feet. Never mind. Figured it out. Thanks

Answer 1

thanks for the points

Explanation:

Answer 2

The perimeter of the figure is
`90\ ft`

Explanation:

Let

`A(1,5),B(6,5),C(6,1),D(1,1)`

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

The perimeter is equal to

`P=AB+BC+CD+AD`

The figure is a rectangle

so

`AB=DC=(6-1)=5*5=25\ ft`

`AD=BC=(5-1)=4*5=20\ ft`

`P=2(25+20)=90\ ft`
