Find the perimeter of the trapezoid below
We need the height of the rectangular part of the figure. Call that height "H"
c2 = a2 + b2 —>> a2 = c2 – b2 In this Pythagorean equation, "a" is our "H".
H2 = 102 – 62
H2 = 100 – 36
H2 = 64
H = 8
Perimeter, going clockwise from the bottom point of the triangle
P = 19 + 8 + 13 + 10
P = 50
