The perimeter of a triangle with vertices (0, 4), (0, 0) and (3, 0) is
(a) 5
(b) 12
(c)11
(d)7+√5
(b) we Further, adding all the distance of a triangle to get the perimeter of a triangle.We plot the vertices of a triangle i.e., (0, 4), (0,0) and (3,0) on
the paper shown as given below
Now,perimeter of ΔAOB=Sum of the length of all its sides = d(AO) + d(OB) + d(AB)
∴ Distance between the points (x1,y1) and (x2, y2),
$d=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}$
$=$ Distance between $A(0,4)$ and $O(0,0)+$ Distance between $O(0,0)$ and $B(3,0)$
+ Distance between $A(0,4)$ and $B(3,0)$
$=\sqrt{(0-0)^{2}+(0-4)^{2}}+\sqrt{(3-0)^{2}+(0-0)^{2}}+\sqrt{(3-0)^{2}+(0-4)^{2}}$
$=\sqrt{0+16}+\sqrt{9+0}+\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(4)^{2}}=4+3+\sqrt{9+16}$
$=7+\sqrt{25}=7+5=12$
Hence, the required perimeter of triangle is 12.
