The perimeter of the rectangle is 46[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] yds.
What is a perimeter?
Perimeter is the total distance around an object.
To calculate the perimeter of the rectangle, we use the formula below.
Formula:
- P = 2(l+w).................. Equation 1
Where:
- P = Perimeter of the rectangle
- l = length of the rectangle
- w = width of the rectangle.
From the diagram in the question,
Given:
- l = 12[tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] yds = 77/6 yds
- w = 10[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] yds = 31/3 yds.
Substitute these values into equation 1
- P = 2[(77/6)+(31/3)]
- P = 2[(77+62)/6]
- P = 139/3
- P = 46[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] yds.
Hence, The perimeter of the rectangle is 46[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] yds.
