Answer:
26.6 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the figures are similar
linear ratio = a : b
area ratio = a² : b²
here
area ratio = 16 : 25, then
linear ratio = 4 : 5 ( square root of both area ratio parts )
let the perimeter of the larger figure be x, then by proportion
=
( cross- multiply )
4x = 106.5 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x ≈ 26.6
Hence perimeter of larger figure is approximately 26.6 m
