Question 83577: find the perimeter of the rectangle in simplified form. remember that the formula for perimeter of a rectangle is P=2L+2W
5 square rooot of 7 +2 square root of 3
this is the information above the rectangle
6 square root of 7-3 square root of 3; this information is on the right side of the rectangle

Length of the rectangle = 5 square rooot of 7 +2 square root of 3
= 5sqrt(7) + 2 sqrt(3)
Width of the rectangle = 6 square root of 7-3 square root of 3
= 6sqrt(7) - 3 sqrt(3)
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2L + 2W
= 2(5sqrt(7) + 2 sqrt(3)) + 2(6sqrt(7) - 3 sqrt(3))

= 10 sqrt(7) + 4 sqrt(3) + 12 sqrt(7) - 6 sqrt(3)

= 22 sqrt(7) - 2 sqrt(3)
