Answer:
26.18 units
Step-by-step explanation:
You could use distance formula three times to calculate the length of each side. Add the three lengths to find the perimeter.

The sides are 3-4-5 and the other is 6-8-10. We use the Pythagorean theorem to find the third side. See image.
11.18 + 5 + 10
= 26.18 units
