The perimeter of the triangle is 10.47 units
The distance between two points is given by:
[tex]Distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Given the points R(2,1), S (2,5), and T(4, 1). Hence:
[tex]RS=\sqrt{(5-1)^2+(2-2)^2}=4\ units[/tex]
[tex]RT=\sqrt{(1-1)^2+(4-2)^2}=2\ units\\\\ST=\sqrt{(4-2)^2+(1-5)^2}=4.47\ units[/tex]
The perimeter of the triangle = 4 + 2 + 4.47 = 10.47 units
