Answer:

26.6 m

Explanation:

Given the figures are similar

linear ratio = a : b

area ratio = a² : b²

here

area ratio = 16 : 25, then

linear ratio = 4 : 5 ( square root of both area ratio parts )

let the perimeter of the larger figure be x, then by proportion


(4)/(21.3) =
(5)/(x) ( cross- multiply )

4x = 106.5 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x ≈ 26.6

Hence perimeter of larger figure is approximately 26.6 m
