Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

25.6

Explanation:

The sum of opposite sides of the circumscribing quadrilateral is half the perimeter. Here, the opposite sides TV and WX both are shown, so the perimeter is ...

P = 2(TV +WX) = 2(4.5 +8.3) = 2(12.8) = 25.6 . . . units

The perimeter of the quadrilateral is 25.6 units.
