Agardener wants to run a border around the outside of her garden. she plots it in a grid to plan how much she will need. the garden is in the shape of a rectangle with vertices at (2,5) (8,5) and (2,3). find the total length of border needed.

Distance between (2, 5) and (8, 5) = 8 - 2 = 6

              Distance between (8, 5) and (8, 3) = 5 - 3 = 2

              Distance between (8, 3) and (2, 3) = 8 - 2 = 6

              Distance between (2, 3) and (2, 5) = 5 - 3= 2

              Total length of border = 6 + 2 + 6 + 2 = 16
