What is the perimeter of the figure shown here? A) 16 feet B) 20 feet C) 36 feet D) 40 feet E) 56 feet
first, complete the dimensions via deduction and them add them all
The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides. Can you figure out the lengths of the two sides whose lengths are not given?

Assume all angles that look like right angles are right angles.

What are the lengths of the segments labeled a, b, c, and d?
perimeter is all the sides added together so that would be the first step. 4+4+8+4= 20 then to find the missing sides you would simply add the total of length so 4+8=12. so the bottom would be 12 and then to get the missing side you add 4+4=8. the final step is to add the sides all together 4+8+4+4+8+12=40
