 The perimeter is 30 for this answer I just did this yesterday. What you do is look at the top of the triangle the other side of where 6 is at is congruent and you do the same for 4 and 5

Answer:

The perimeter of triangle ABC is 30 units.

Explanation:

Given information: AC, CB and BA are tangents.

According to the property of tangents from the same external point, the tangent segments to a circle are equal.

Using this property we can say that


AD=FA=5units


EB=FB=4units


DC=CE=6units

The perimeter of triangle ABC is


perimeter=AC+CB+BA


perimeter=AD+DC+CE+EB+BF+FA


perimeter=5+6+6+4+4+5=30

Therefore the perimeter of triangle ABC is 30 units.
