Is this correct? Ive done this a million times and they always come out the same, but I still get it wrong.

Answer:
No, the correct answer is 32cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, lets cut the shape into two. A rectangle and a triangle. This will help us find the slanted side of the shape.
We will use the pythagorean theorem to find the length of the slanted line.
The pythagorean theorem is [tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex].
Input the given information of the triangle lengths that we know; that is the length= 6 and the base=3.
[tex]c= \sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2} } =\sqrt{6^{2}+\ 3^{2} } = 6.7082[/tex]
Now, we round.
6.7082≈ 6.7
We have found the length of the slanted line of the shape.
Now, let's add all the lengths together.
8+6+6.7+11= 31.7
Now, lets round.
31.7 ≈ 32cm
Hope this helps!
