Answer :

Answer:

The answer to your question is 11.4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-3, -1)

B ( 0, 3)

C ( 1, 2)

Perimeter = ?

Formula

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2}}[/tex]

Process

1.- Find the length between the points

dAB = [tex]\sqrt{0 + 3)^{2} + (3 + 1)^{2}}[/tex]

dAB = [tex]\sqrt{3^{2}+ 4^{2}}[/tex]

dAB = [tex]\sqrt{9 + 16}[/tex]

dAB = [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex]

dAB = 5

dBC= [tex]\sqrt{(1 - 0)^{2} + (2 - 3)^{2}}[/tex]

dBC = [tex]\sqrt{1^{2} + (-1)^{2}}[/tex]

dBC = [tex]\sqrt{1 + 1}[/tex]

dBC = [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

dAC = [tex]\sqrt{(1 + 3)^{2} + (2 + 1)^{2}}[/tex]

dAC = [tex]\sqrt{4^{2} + 3^{2}}[/tex]

dAC = [tex]\sqrt{16 + 9}[/tex]

dAC = [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex]

dAC = 5

2.- Perimeter

P = AB + BC + AC

P = 5 + [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] + 5

P = 10 + [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

P = 10 + 1.42

P = 11.4
