In the diagram, ∠ZWZY and WYX are right angles. Find the perimeter of WXYZ.
A.
30cm
B.
32cm
C.
35cm
D.
37cm
Correct answer is B
In ΔWYZ:
hyp\(^2\) = adj\(^2\) + opp\(^2\)
hyp\(^2\) =3\(^2\) + 4\(^2\) → 9 + 16
hyp\(^2\) = 25
hyp = 5
In ΔWXY:
hyp\(^2\) = adj\(^2\) + opp\(^2\)
hyp\(^2\) = 12\(^2\) + 5\(^2\) = 144 +25
hyp\(^2\) = 169
hyp = 13
the perimeter of WXYZ. = 3+4+12+13 → 32cm
