Given the parallelogram:
Calculate the perimeter of the parallelogram.
To determine the perimeter of the parallelogram, follow these steps:
Step 4: Perform the addition inside the parentheses:
Step 5: Multiply the sum by 2 to find the perimeter:
Therefore, the solution to the problem is that the perimeter of the parallelogram is .
Upon reviewing the choices, the correct answer is choice 4: 22.
22
Given the parallelogram:
Calculate the perimeter of the parallelogram.
A parallelogram has four sides, but opposite sides are equal. So you have two sides of length 6.5 and two sides of length 4.5. That's why we use !
That works perfectly too! You'd get 6.5 + 4.5 + 6.5 + 4.5 = 22. The formula is just a faster way to do the same calculation.
Adjacent sides are sides that share a vertex (corner). In the diagram, sides AB and AD are adjacent because they both connect to point A. Opposite sides are parallel and equal.
The formula still works! A rectangle is a special type of parallelogram where all angles are 90°. You still use .
Yes! This perimeter formula works for all parallelograms - rectangles, squares, rhombuses, and general parallelograms. Just identify the two different side lengths.
