Question : 19 of 46
Marks: +1, -0
Find its perimeter.
Solution:  
From the graph, AB=6cm,BB=8AB = 6\,\text{cm}, BB' = 8 cm\text{cm} .
In ABB\triangle ABB'
(AB)2  =AB2+(BB)2(AB')^2 \; = AB^2 + (BB')^2
  =(6)2+(8)2=36+64=100\; = (6)^2 + (8)^2 = 36 + 64 = 100
AB  =10=ABAB' \; = 10 = A'B
( ABABABA' B' is a parallelogram)
   Perimeter of   ABB  =AB+AB\; \text{ Perimeter of } \; AB' B' \; = A'B' + AB' +AB+AB+ AB + A' B
  =6+10+6+10\; = 6 + 10 + 6 + 10
  =32   units.   \; = 32 \; \text{ units. } \;
