The coordinates of the vertices of a polygon are (-2, 1). (-3, 3), (-1, 5), (2, 4), and (2, 1). what is the perimeter of the polygon to the nearest tenth of a unit.

do not label your answer. answer with a number only.

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Plot the vertices of the polygon to better understand the problem

we have

using a graphing tool

The polygon is a pentagon (the number of sides is 5)

see the attached figure

The perimeter is equal to

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

step 2

Find the distance AB

substitute in the formula

step 3

Find the distance BC

substitute in the formula

step 4

Find the distance CD

substitute in the formula

step 5

Find the distance DE

substitute in the formula

step 6

Find the distance AE

substitute in the formula

step 7

Find the perimeter

substitute the values

Round to the nearest tenth of a unit
