Question

given the quadrilateral, find the perimeter. let the units be in feet.

Explanation:

Step1: Determine side - lengths

By counting the grid squares, horizontal side lengths: The horizontal distance between \(S\) and \(T\) and between \(V\) and \(U\) is 100 feet. The vertical distance between \(S\) and \(V\) and between \(T\) and \(U\) is 100 feet.

Step2: Calculate perimeter

The perimeter \(P\) of a quadrilateral is the sum of its side - lengths. For a rectangle (which this quadrilateral appears to be), \(P = 2\times(\text{length}+\text{width})\). Here, length \(l = 100\) feet and width \(w = 100\) feet. So \(P=2\times(100 + 100)\).
\[P=2\times200=400\]

Answer:

400 feet
