Answer:

26 cm

Explanation:

The sides of the quadrilateral are tangents to the circle.

Tangents drawn from an external point to the circle are congruent, hence

Beginning from the left side of the quadrilateral and counting anti- clockwise

3 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 3 = 26 cm

Answer:

The perimeter of the red polygon is 26 cm.

Explanation:

We are given a figure. From the figure, the sides of the quadrilateral are tangents to the circle. So, tangents to the circle from a same point measures the equal length.

I have attached the figure with the measures.

Now let's find perimeter of the red polygon. The red polygon is nothing but a quadrilateral.

To find the perimeter, we need to add all the sides of the polygon.

Perimeter =

4 + 4 + 4+ 2 + 2+ 3+ 3+ 4 = 26 cm.

So the perimeter of the red polygon is 26 cm.
