It depends on what you are summing together: the lengths of the sides - to find the perimeter - or the exterior or interior angles - to satisfy a maths question.
You find perimeter by adding all the sides of a figure.
If you're looking for the length of each of the 6 sides it's 16. To find the perimeter of an object you just add the length of each side to one another. In this case when you already know the perimeter you divide 96 by 6(which represents the six sides of the hexagon).
If the figure is a polygon ... with sides made of straight line segments ... then the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all the sides. If part or all of the figure's boundary consists of curves, the perimeter is still the distance all around the figure, but you may need special formulas to find the lengths of the curved sections.
Add up the lengths of the sides.
A quadrilateral is a four sided figure, so sum the lengths of its four sides.
To find the perimeter of a figure, add all the lengths of the edges of the figure. The sum of the sides is the perimeter.
It depends on what you are summing together: the lengths of the sides - to find the perimeter - or the exterior or interior angles - to satisfy a maths question.
To find the distance around a figure, you calculate the perimeter. The perimeter is the total distance around the outside of a shape or figure. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square, you add up all the sides. For a circle, you can find the perimeter by multiplying the diameter by Ο (pi).
You find perimeter by adding all the sides of a figure.
Find the distance of each side and add to find the total perimeter.

Divide the perimeter by eight.
If you're looking for the length of each of the 6 sides it's 16. To find the perimeter of an object you just add the length of each side to one another. In this case when you already know the perimeter you divide 96 by 6(which represents the six sides of the hexagon).
It means you have found the distance around that figure.
There is no way to find perimeter from a 3D figure. However, you can find the perimeter of a side of a triangular prism by using perimeter formulas for a parallelogram or triangle.
Divide the irregular figure into manageable pieces and work out their individual areas, sum the areas to that of the original figure. Measure the perimeter.
