Question

6in.
8in.
10in.
12in.

Answer 1

12 Inches

Explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of the parallelogram is
`P=2(s+b)`

(S means the side and B means the base)

The side is 2 inches and the base is 4 inches.

So,
`S=2, B=4`

Apply the formula for the perimeter:

`P=2(S+B)=2(2+4)`

`2(6)=12`

The perimeter of the parallelogram is 12 inches.

Answer 2

The opposite sides are equal to each other.

The perimeter is the sum of the outside dimensions.

Perimeter = 2 + 2 + 4 + 4 = 12 inches.

The answer is D.
