the perimeter is the sum of all the sides added together. 8+3+4+11+4+14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what the area

OpenStudy (metalslayer):

You can split the shape into two rectangles and then do base X height

OpenStudy (metalslayer):

Shape 1 has an area of 24 since 4+4 = 8 and 8 X 3 is 24.

OpenStudy (metalslayer):

11X4 is 44 so 24 plus 44 equals: 68

OpenStudy (anonymous):

get it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so would that be the perimeter

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no that is the area. area=68

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the perimeter would be 44

OpenStudy (anonymous):

perimeter is the sides added together. p=44

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you so much

OpenStudy (anonymous):
