Answer:
P = 19.76 units
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Finding [tex]\overrightarrow{AB}[/tex] (or [tex]\overrightarrow{BA}[/tex]):
[tex]\overrightarrow{AB}=\overrightarrow{OA}-\overrightarrow{OB}= \left[\big5\atop\big3\right]-\left[\big2\atop-\big5\right]= \left[\big5-\big2\atop\big3-(-\big5)\right]=\left[\big3\atop\big8\right][/tex]
2. Calculating length of [tex]\overrightarrow{OA}\,,\ \overrightarrow{OB}\ \text{and}\ \overrightarrow{AB}[/tex]:
[tex]|\overrightarrow{OA}|=\sqrt{5^2+3^2}=\sqrt{25+9}=\sqrt{34}\approx5.831\\\\ |\overrightarrow{OB}|=\sqrt{2^2+(-5)^2}=\sqrt{4+25}=\sqrt{29}\approx5.385\\\\ |\overrightarrow{AB}|=\sqrt{3^2+8^2}=\sqrt{9+64}=\sqrt{73}\approx8.544[/tex]
3. Calculating perimeter:
[tex]P=|\overrightarrow{OA}|+|\overrightarrow{OB}|+|\overrightarrow{AB}|=\sqrt{34}+\sqrt{29}+\sqrt{73}\approx5.831+5.385+8.544=19.76[/tex]
