Example Question #1 : How To Find Perimeter
Angela found the perimeter of the trapezoid below to be 35 cm.
What is the length of the missing side?
To find the perimeter of a trapezoid, add up the lengths of the four sides. In the given trapezoid,
To find the missing side, combine like terms and solve for .
The length of the missing side is thus .
Example Question #11 : Plane Geometry
What is the perimeter of the above trapezoid?
To find the perimeter of a trapezoid, add up the lengths of the four sides. In the given trapezoid,
Example Question #11 : Quadrilaterals
Ted drew the parallelogram shown below.
What is the perimeter of the parallelogram?
12 feet
13 feet
17 feet
26 feet
40 feet
26 feet
The perimeter of a parallelogram can be found by summing the lengths of each of the sides. In a parallelogram, opposite sides have the same length. Therefore, you should use the equation 8 + 8 + 5 + 5 = P. The perimeter of the parallelogram is 26 feet.
Example Question #12 : Quadrilaterals
Guillermo drew the parallelogram below.
What is the perimeter of the parallelogram?
40 millimeters
20 millimeters
42 millimeters
72 millimeters
26 millimeters
40 millimeters
The perimeter of a parallelogram can be found by summing the lengths of each of the sides. In a parallelogram, opposite sides have the same length. Therefore, you should use the equation 8 + 8 + 12 + 12 = P. The perimeter of the parallelogram is 40 feet.
