sam (.sam.):

50

OpenStudy (anonymous):

50 is not one of my choices

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how are yo all solving this?

sam (.sam.):

Half the 16 then use Pythagoras theorem \[\sqrt{8^{2}+15^{2}}\] =17 Perimeter = 17+17+16=50

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the smaller triangle base is 8 height is 15...thus the hypotenuse is √(8^2 + 15^2) =17 there perimeter is 17 + 17 + 16 = 50
