Answer:

(7x + 10y)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this add (3x - 4y) to itself to calculate to lengths of the shorter sides.

(3x - 4y) + (3x - 4y) = 6x - 8y

Subtract this from (20x + 12y)

(20x + 12y) - (6x - 8y) = 14x + 20y     Divide this by two to get the length of one side

14x + 20y / 2 = 7x + 10y
