Compound Shapes
Perimeter and Area of Class 7
There are different Ways for finding the Perimeter of this shape:
Let’s find the perimeter. There is only one side length that is missing which can be found by subtracting the two 3m lengths from the total height of 12m:
12 – 3 – 3 = 6m
All you need to do now is add up all of the side lengths:
12 + 3 + 7 + 6 + 10 + 3 + 15 + 12 = 68m
