Question

What is the perimeter of the figure shown below which is not drawn to scale

Answer 1

The perimeter of a figure is found adding the length of all its sides.

In this case, the perimeter is:

P = (x + 6) + (3x - 2) + (x- 3) + (x+ 2) + (x) + (x + 5)

P = (x +3x + x +x + x + x) + (6 - 2 -3 +2 + 5)

P = 8x + 8
