A square is made up of an L-shaped region and three transformations of the region. If the perimeter of the square is 40 units, what is the perimeter of each L-shaped region?

Respuesta :

Answer:

20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

This implies that the square can be divided into four equal L-shaped regions. These regions with respect to transformation forms a square.

Perimeter of the square is 40 units. Since a square has equal length of sides, thus each side of the square is 10 units.

Thus, each L-shape region has dimensions; 8 units, 5 units, 5 units and 2 units.

Perimeter of each L-shape region = the addition of the length of each side of the shape

Perimeter of each L-shape region = 8 + 5 + 5 + 2

                                                         = 20 units
