Answer:

Use pythagorean theorem.

Explanation:

The length of the shorter sides are 1 & 4

1^2+4^2=c^2

1+16=c^2

17=c^2

So, the length, rounded to the nearest whole inch, would be 4.

To find the perimeter, you need to find the side lengths first.

The short sides are 6 & 7.

6^2+7^2=c^2

36+49=c^2

85=c^2

So the length for that would be 8, in the nearest whole number.

Add all of the side lengths together.

6+7+8= 21

The perimeter is 21.
