Solution
We have a triangle ΔABC whose co-ordinates are A (0, 0); B (1, 0); C (0, 1). So clearly the triangle is right angled triangle, right angled at A. So,
AB = 1 unit
AC = 1 unit
Now apply Pythagoras theorem to get the hypotenuse,
`BC = sqrt(AB^2 + Ac^2 )`
`= sqrt(2)`
So the perimeter of the triangle is,
= AB + BC + AC
`= 1 + 1+ sqrt(2)`
`= 2 + sqrt(2)`
