Answer:
a) 21 √m inches
b) 13√2/2 m
Step-by-step explanation:
a) we want to find the perimeter of an equilateral triangle
An equilateral triangle is one which sides has the same equal length
The perimeter of this triangle is the sum of the lengths of the three sides
Mathematically, we have this as:
7 √m + 7 √m + 7 √m
= 21 √m inches
b) we want to calculate the perimeter of the given rectangle
Mathematically, we can calculate the perimeter of a rectangle using the formula below;
P = 2(l + b)
where l represents the length of the rectangle and b represents the breadth of the rectangle
From the given shape;
l = √50 m, b = 1/2 √32
So, we have the perimeter follows;
2( √32/2 + √50)
= √32 + √50/2
√32 = 4√2
√50 = 5√2
Thus, we have;
4 √2 + 5 √2/2
= (8 √2 + 5 √2)/2 = 13√2/2
