So this is the question I suppose

 

Shaded area A - 48= shaded area B

Area of △GHI = 1/2 *10 * 24

                       = 120 cm

 

Total area of figure = Area△GHI + Shaded area B

                                     = 120 + Shaded area A - 48

                                     = Shaded area A + 72                                                    ...(1)

 

i.e. from figure, 

Total area of figure = Shaded area A + Area of rectangle EFGH                        ...(2)

 

From (1) and (2) we infer that 

Area of rectangle EFGH = 72 cm

 

⇒  72 = EH * HG 

⇒ 72 = EH * 24 

⇒ EH = 3 cm 

 

Perimeter of EFGH = 2( 3 + 24)

                                     = 2 x 27 

                                     = 54 cm
