Explanation:

Explanation:

BU = AU (Given)

BU = AU = 5 cm

BA = AU + BU

BA = 5 + 5

BA = 10 cm

CT = TA (Given)

CT = TA = 4 cm

AC = CT + TA

AC = 4 + 4 = 8 cm

CV = VB (Given)

CV = VB = 3 cm

CB = CV + VB

CB = 3 + 3 = 6 cm

Now,

Perimeter of ∆ABC = 10 + 8 + 6 = 24 cm

So using the Triangle Midsegment Theorem we can use this to solve

The perimeter is 24
