Can anyone help me, I am not sure where I am making the mistake. Perimeter of ABCDE should be perimeter of the square and the triangle. Perimeter of a square is 48 and since the sides of the triangle 30:60:90 it should be (21√3)*2.. I cant see where I am making the mistake. Can anyone please help!

Also, note that perimeter of ABCDE is not perimeter of square + perimeter of triangle. It is perimeter of 3 sides of square + 2 sides of triangle.

Perimeter of ABCDE = AB + BC + CD + DE + EA = 3 sides of squares + 2 sides of equilateral triangle
