Answer: Perimeter of entire figure is 4x bigger than the perimeter of one kite
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Three congruent kites are placed together edge-to-edge.
The bottom edge is 4x and the top edge is x.
∴Perimeter of one kite =x+x+4x+4x=10x
Perimeter of entire figure=4x+x+x+x+x+x+x+4x=14x
Clearly 14x>10x
i.e.Perimeter of entire figure>Perimeter of one kite
Difference between the perimeter is =Perimeter of entire figure-Perimeter of one kite=14x-10x=4x
∴ Perimeter of entire figure is 4x bigger than the perimeter of one kite
