You can put this solution on YOUR website!
We consider the given %22height%22+=+highlight%28L%29ength=+%289-3%2F4%29m
Also, the given base=highlight%28W%29idth=%285-3%2F5%29m
So,
P=2%28L%2BW%29
P=2%28%289-3%2F4%29%2B%285-3%2F5%29%29
P=2%28%2814-%2815%2B12%29%2F20%29%29
P=2%2814-27%2F20%29
P=2%2815-7%2F20%29
P=%2830-7%2F10%29 ----------> P=30.70m
