Question

question 5 (multiple choice worth 2 points) (perimeter and area on the coordinate plane mc) a classroom is rectangular in shape. if listed as ordered pairs, the corners of the classroom are (-22, 14), (-22, -10), (2, 14), and (2, -10). what is the perimeter of the classroom in feet? 96 feet 176 feet 240 feet 480 feet

Explanation:

Step1: Find length of vertical side

Use y-coordinates: $14 - (-10) = 24$ feet

Step2: Find length of horizontal side

Use x-coordinates: $2 - (-22) = 24$ feet

Step3: Calculate rectangle perimeter

Use formula $P=2(l+w)$: $P=2(24+64)=176$ feet

Answer:

176 feet
