PARKS Anika is hiking on a rectangular trail at the national park. There are four resting spots along the corners of the trail. On the map, they are marked with coordinates of (-2, 2), (1, 2), (1, -2), and (-2, -2). If each unit represents 1 mile, find the perimeter of the trail in miles, using the coordinates.

Answer:

[tex]14\ miles[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

[tex]A(-2, 2), B(1, 2), C(1, -2),D(-2, -2)[/tex]

Plot the coordinates

see the attached figure

we know that

The perimeter is equal to

[tex]P=2(AB+AD)[/tex]

we have

[tex]AB=(1-(-2))=3\ units[/tex]

[tex]AD=(2-(-2))=4\ units[/tex]

substitute

[tex]P=2(3+4)=14\ units[/tex]

Convert to miles

If each unit represents 1 mile

then

[tex]14\ units=14\ miles[/tex]
