To calculate perimeter of trapezoid you need to know the dimension of each side of trapeziod..
then.. sum of sides give you perimeter.

For the standard trapezoid, you are given the length of the base (b), the top (a) and the height (h). You typically aren't given the length of the sides, but you can calculate them using the Pythagorean theorem and knowing that the "triangle" formed when you draw a line from the edge of the top line (a) to the base (b) has sides of dimension (0.5 * (b-a)) at the bottom and the height, h, on the side. The third leg of this triangle (or, the side of the trapezoid) therefore has length sqrt(h^2 + 0.25*(b-a)^2). Then the trapezoid has perimeter = a + b +2 * sqrt(h^2 + 0.25 * (b - a)^2) .

The perimeter for a trapezoid is the sum of the length of all the sides.

it is particularly basically area of the completed equation, and the typical public don't be responsive to that the completed version is: E^2 = m^2 * c^4 + p^2 * c^2 it ability that that the capability (squared) of somthing equals that is mass squared situations the value of light to the fourth, plus that is momentum squared situations the value of light squared. even however while an merchandise isn't shifting close to the value of light that is momentum is basiclly 0 so the 2nd a million/2 is basically + 0, then if so you're left with E^2 = m^2 * c^4 which, in case you're taking the squar root of the two factors) simplifies to E = mc^2, or basically capability equals mass situations the value of light squared. This formulation became invented by ability of none different than Albert Einstein as area of his particular thought of Relativity

Perimeter is simply the sum of all four sides. You need to clarify your question. What parameters do you know?

Side1+Side2+Side3+Side4=Perimeter of a rectangle, square, trapezoid, rhombus, and all four sided geometric shapes.

the average trapezoid
P = 2a + b + c
or
P = a + b + c + d
