To find the perimeter, we add up all the sides:
Perimeter = 7 cm + 5 cm + 5 cm + 5 cm + 5 cm + 7 cm + 18 cm
Perimeter = 52 cm
To find the area, we need to know the shape of the figure. Assuming it is a hexagon (a six-sided figure), we can divide it into equilateral triangles to find the area.
We know that the length of each side is 5 cm, so we can use the formula for the area of an equilateral triangle:
Area = (sqrt(3)/4) x side^2
Area of one equilateral triangle = (sqrt(3)/4) x 5 cm^2
Area of one equilateral triangle = 6.25 cm^2
Since the hexagon is made up of six equilateral triangles, we can find the total area by multiplying the area of one triangle by six:
Area = 6 x 6.25 cm^2
Area = 37.5 cm^2
Therefore, the area of the hexagon is 37.5 cm^2.
To find the area and perimeter of the shape, we need to determine the number of sides and their lengths.
The given lengths are: 7 cm, 5 cm, 5 cm, 5 cm, 5 cm, and 7 cm.
First, let's determine the perimeter:
Perimeter = Sum of all side lengths
Perimeter = 7 cm + 5 cm + 5 cm + 5 cm + 5 cm + 7 cm
Perimeter = 34 cm
So, the perimeter of the shape is 34 cm.
Next, let's find the area:
Since the shape is not mentioned, I assume it is a polygon with 6 sides.
For a general polygon, the area can be calculated using various methods, but without any further information about the shape, it is not possible to determine the exact area.
If you have specific details about the shape, such as it being a regular hexagon or other measurements, please provide them, and I will be happy to assist you further.
