What is the perimeter of a triangle with corners at #(6 ,4 )#, #(9 ,2 )#, and #(5 ,7 )#?
Each side of the triangle can be measured by the distance formula:
Let's use labels for corners:
Then
Then the perimeter of the given triangle is:

To find the perimeter of the triangle with corners at (6, 4), (9, 2), and (5, 7), you need to calculate the distances between these points and then sum them up. You can use the distance formula, which states that the distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) in a plane is given by:
[ \text{Distance} = \sqrt{(x₂ - x₁)^2 + (y₂ - y₁)^2} ]
Apply this formula to find the lengths of the sides of the triangle, then add them together to find the perimeter.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
