help on geometry plz find the perimeter of the parallelogram

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (gorv):

2*(base + height)

OpenStudy (gorv):

2*(10.8+2.3)=2*13.1=26.2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that wat I got but the choices are 15.9 24.84 31.8 11.73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

24.84

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10.8x2.3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why are we going to * the 2.3 ?

OpenStudy (gorv):

that will be area not perimeter man @Glizzy_Nedd

OpenStudy (gorv):

perimeter = 2*(base*height)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but its not an answer choice

OpenStudy (gorv):

what we can do buddy....but u can not use area for perimeter

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how are we going to do it

OpenStudy (gorv):

@damara1213 check the Q i think we need to find area of parallelogram ,...according to ans

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@damara1213 are you sure those are the right answer choices ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup those are the only ones there @Glizzy_Nedd and ya but the answer is not there so how are we going to find the anwer @gorv

OpenStudy (gorv):

for area = base * height perimeter= 2*base+2*height

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya and we are looking for the perimeter

OpenStudy (gorv):

base is on which perpendicular stands

OpenStudy (gorv):

choices are wrong lolllll

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but I swer to god that those are the only ones there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i think i got it because 5.1x2.3 try that XD

OpenStudy (gorv):

area=24.84 this is the ans for area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it 11.73 @Glizzy_Nedd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@damara1213 YEA

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oooooooo ok but I am getting confuse

OpenStudy (gorv):

sorry sorry sorry.... perimeter is sum of length of side

OpenStudy (gorv):

11.73 is not the ans

OpenStudy (gorv):

10.8+5.3+10.8+5.3=31.2

OpenStudy (gorv):

@damara1213

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so wat the answer

OpenStudy (gorv):

31.2 damn sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (gorv):

perimeter=2*(side+base) earlier formula was wrong

OpenStudy (gorv):

2*(10.8+5.1)=31.8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oo ok well let me see wat the answer then I will tell you guy k :) thank you any ways

OpenStudy (anonymous):

np

OpenStudy (gorv):

last formula is correct just put the values

OpenStudy (anonymous):

31.8 was right thanks any way
