Answer:

The perimeter of EFGH is 30.5

Explanation:

figure ABCD is similar to figure EFGH (hence the ~ sign)

A -> B= 12

B -> C= 12

C -> D= 12

A -> D= 25

EFGH has sides that are half of the size of ABCD

there are two ways you can solve this:

A) divide the perimeter of ABCD by 2 (making it half)

61 / 2 = 30.5

or

B) adding all of the sides together

E -> F =6 so therefore so do F-> G and G -> H

6 + 6 + 6 + 12.5 = 30.5
