Since the part on top is a right angled triangle and two of the three sides are 5 and 12,
the third side(Hypotenuse) must be 13 because 5-12-13 is a Pythagorean triplet.
The part on top is a rectangle which will have equal measure for opposite sides.
We are asked for the perimeter of the figure above which is 5+12+(13)+17+17 = 64(Option B)
