Question

Find the perimeter of the trapezoid. x/4 + x/4 + x/4 + 2x/4

Answer 1

those are the sides?

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

then perimeter equals the sum...where are you having trouble with? you already set up the formula

Answer 4

I'm just confused on how to add them... :/

Answer 5

hmm okay...

\[\frac x4 + \frac x4 + \frac x4 + \frac{2x}{4}\]

notice you have the same denominators..if you remember the lesson about that back in your younger years..when you have common denominators then just add the numerators then copy the denominator

\[\frac{x + x + x + 2x}{4}\]

need any more help?

Answer 6

oh ok thx for the help :)
