The formula for finding the perimeter of a quadrilateral is Length + Length + Width + Width.

<h3>What is Perimeter?</h3>

A perimeter is the path that surrounds a certain shape. To calculate the path that surrounds a quadrilateral, we need to get the sum of its four sides, both lengths and widths, lengths being the longest sides and the widths being the shortest.
The formula used for calculating perimeter is Perimeter = Length + Length + Width + Width.
For instance, to calculate the perimeter of a parallelogram with a side of 5 cm and one of 3 cm, we insert the numbers in their corresponding spot in the formula as such: Perimeter=5+5+3+3=16 cm or since parallelograms have 2 sets of 2 equal sides, we can use this formula Perimeter=(5×2)+(3×2)=10+6=16 cm.
For a square on the other hand, we only need to know the length of one side because it has 4 equal sides.

Therefore, the formula for finding the perimeter of a quadrilateral is Length + Length + Width + Width.

$b=a+3\\
c=a+6\\
a^2+b^2=c^2\\\\
a^2+(a+3)^2=(a+6)^2\\
a^2+a^2+6a+9=a^2+12a+36\\
a^2-6a-27=0\\
a^2-9a+3a-27=0\\
a(a-9)+3(a-9)=0\\
(a+3)(a-9)=0\\
a=-3 \vee a=9\\
$

The length can't be negative, so the answer is 9 cm.
