Answer:


x = 12\ m,\ perimeter = 63\ m

Explanation:

Step 1: Determine x


(15\ m)/(10\ m) = (x)/(8\ m)


(15\ m*8\ m) = (10\ m * x)


120\ m^2 / 10\ m = x * 10\ m / 10\ m


12\ m = x

Step 2: Determine the perimeter of the figure


18\ m + 15\ m + 10\ m + 8\ m + 12\ m


63\ m

Answer:
x = 12\ m,\ perimeter = 63\ m
