Question

calculate the perimeter of the figure shown below. 9 ft 9 ft 25 ft

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the figure

By moving the horizontal and vertical segments, we can see that the perimeter is equivalent to that of a rectangle with length $9 + 25=34$ ft and width $9 + 25 = 34$ ft.

Step2: Apply perimeter formula

The perimeter formula for a rectangle is $P = 2(l + w)$. Here $l=34$ ft and $w = 34$ ft. So $P=2\times(34 + 34)$.
$P=2\times68 = 136$ ft.

Answer:

$136$ ft
