Answer 1

The perimeter of the rectangle is 22 units.

To find the perimeter, we need to add up the lengths of all four sides. Using the distance formula, we can find the length of each side:

- Side 1: (0,0) to (0,5) is a vertical line segment of length 5 units.
- Side 2: (0,5) to (6,5) is a horizontal line segment of length 6 units.
- Side 3: (6,5) to (6,0) is a vertical line segment of length 5 units.
- Side 4: (6,0) to (0,0) is a horizontal line segment of length 6 units.

Adding up these lengths, we get:

5 + 6 + 5 + 6 = 22 units.

Therefore, the answer is 22 units.
