Question

The points U(-4,-2), V(-4, 4), w(-8, 8), and X(-8, 2) form

parallelogram UVWX. Plot the points then click the "Graph
Quadrilateral" button. Then find the perimeter of the parallelogram.
Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answer 1

To find the perimeter, we need to find the length of each side of the parallelogram.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Plot the points U(-4,-2), V(-4, 4), w(-8, 8), and X(-8, 2) on a graph.
2. The opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal in length.
3. The distance between U and V is 6 units, and the distance between W and X is also 6 units. Therefore, the perimeter of the parallelogram is 24 units.
