Answer:

Explanation:

Perimeter of a shape or figure is the distance around it.

The perimeter of the given quadrilateral is

TU + UV + VW + WT

To determine the length of each side, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

Therefore

TU² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25

TU = √25 = 5

UV² = 6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100

UV = √100 = 10

The given quadrilateral is a parallelogram. This means that the opposite sides are equal. Thus

WT = UV = 10

VW = TU = 5

Perimeter = 10 + 10 + 5 + 5 = 30 units
