Ivan draws PQR on the coordinate plane. What is the perimeter of PQR? Round to the
nearest unit.

Perimeter of PQR = 37 units (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using graph;

Coordinate of P = (-2 , -4)

Coordinate of Q = (16 , -4)

Coordinate of R = (7 , -7)

Find:

Perimeter of PQR

Computation:

Distance between two point = √(x1 - x2)² + (y1 - y2)²

Distance between PQ = √(-2 - 16)² + (-4 - 4)²

Distance between PQ = 18 unit

Distance between QR = √(16 - 7)² + (-4 + 7)²

Distance between QR = √81 + 9

Distance between QR = 9.48 unit (Approx.)

Distance between RP = √(7 + 2)² + (-7 + 4)²

Distance between RP = √81 + 9

Distance between RP = 9.48 unit (Approx.)

Perimeter of PQR = PQ + QR + RP

Perimeter of PQR = 18 + 9.48 + 9.48

Perimeter of PQR = 36.96

Perimeter of PQR = 37 units (Approx.)
