Answer:

32

Explanation:

we have to find the side of the bigger triangle by making a ratio

5/8=7/x

cross multiply

5x=7(8)

5x=56

/5. /5

x=11.2

now for the other side

5/8=8/x

5x=8(8)

5x=64

/5. /5

x=12.8

we know all three sides 11.2, 12.8 and 8 so we add them

11.2+12.8+8

24+8

32

hopes this helps
