Solution:
Perimeter is the sum of the figure's sides.
<u>Note that:</u>
- 10 + 10 + 4 + 10 + 4 + 10 + 10 + 30 = Perimeter of figure
<u>Simplify the expression:</u>
- 5(10) + 2(4) + 30 = Perimeter of figure
- => 50 + 8 + 30 = Perimeter of figure
- => 88 cm = Perimeter of figure
The answer, when rounded to the nearest tenth is 19.2
