    The answer to your question is: it's a rectangle

    perimeter = 30 u

    Step-by-step explanation:

    d = √ ((x2. x1) ² + (y2-y1) ²)

    Now, calculate the distances AB, BC, CD, AD

    dAB = √ ((11-6) ² + (-4+4) ² = √5² = 5

    dBC = √ ((11-11) ² + (-4-6) ² = √10 = 10

    dCD = √ ((6-11) ² + (6-6) ² = √5² = 5

    dAD = √ ((6-6) ² + (6+4) ² = √10² = 10

    From the results we conclude that is a rectangle because two sides have the same length and the other two also measure the same. We can draw it to confirm this.

    Perimeter = dAB + dBC + dCD + dAD

    = 5 + 10 + 5 + 10 = 30 units
