A typical towel is the shape of a rectangle.
Rectangles have 2 opposite pairs of congruent (equal) sides.
To find perimeter, find the sums of all the sides.
The measures of the towel's sides are:
2 feet
2 feet
3/4 foot
3/4 foot
Add these together to find the perimeter.
2 + 2 + 0.75 + 0.75 = 5.5
The perimeter of the towel is 5.5 feet.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
<em>B. 9 < 7 or x > 16.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>I had the same question and the answer was B.</em>
Parallel lines are equal to each other(congruent). the slope is 4
4. SOLVE FOR X:
Using the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem, we know that the 67 degree angle is congruent with the (12x - 5) degree angle. With this information, all I have to do is set the two equal to each other and solve for x.
67 = 12x - 5
67 + 5 = 12x - 5 + 5
72/12 = 12x/12
6 = x
x = 6
SOLVE FOR Y:
Using the Vertical Angles theorem, we know that angle y must be congruent to the 67 degree angle.
y = 67 degrees.
5. SOLVE FOR Y:
Alternate exterior angles: 6(x - 12) = 120
6x - 72 + 72 = 120 + 72
6x/6 = 192/6
x = 32
SOLVE FOR Y:
6((32) - 12) + y = 180
192 - 72 + y = 180
120 + y - 120 = 180 - 120
y = 60
