Not me! I'm struggling over here with my own homework. I'm trying my hardest to solve these rational expressions. Did I mention this already a developmental math class? LOL!

Thanks! I'm going to send a picture of the text book problem.
Quoting MsNeene:
How many sides does the polygon have. And how many sides did they already give you the number for and what are those numbers? Then I can write you up a quick formula and solve it

31-18 = 13
25-13=12 (the horizontal section just above the 25m)
20+20+12+31+25+18 = 126 m
The perimetre is 126 metres

How were you calculating to get the answer? Just curious if it was a shorter method than what I had.
Quoting Dana267:
So I feel like there us a simple formula ----I know I'm doing too many steps to get the answer. There has to be an easier way.
