Perimeter : The sum of all the sides of the shape.

In the given figure :

Perimeter of the given figure : AB + BC + CD + DE + EF + FA

Since, AB = CD + EF

where we have , AB = 8, CD = 4

So,

AB = CD + EF

8 = 4 + EF

EF = 8 - 4

EF = 4

Side, BC = DE + FA

where, we have BC = 5, FA = 3

BC = DE + FA

5 = DE + 3

DE = 5 - 3

DE = 2

From the given figure, we have

AB = 8 cm, BC =5cm, CD = 4cm, DE = 2cm, EF = 4cm, FA = 3cm

Perimeter of the given figure : AB + BC + CD + DE + EF + FA

Perimeter of the given figure : 8 + 5 + 4 + 2 + 4 + 3

Perimeter of the given figure : 26 cm

Perimeter of the given figure is 26cm

Answer : Perimeter of the given figure is 26cm

Find the perimeter. Be sure to add ALL the sides.-example-1
