In the diagram below, what is the relationship between the number of parallelograms and the perimeter of the figure they form? The first figure is formed by 1 trapezoid. The left side equals 5, the top side equals 8, the left side equals 5, and the bottom side equals 6. The second figure is formed by 2 adjacent trapezoids from left to right. The left side equals 5, the top side is formed by two segments equal to 8 and 6 respectively, the right side equals 5, and the bottom side is formed by two segments equals to 6 and 8 respectively. The third figure is formed by 3 adjacent trapezoids from left to right. The left side equals 5, the top side is formed by 3 segments equal to 8, 6, and 8 respectively, the right side equals 5, and the bottom side is formed by three segments equal to 6, 8, and 6 respectively. Which of the following represents the relationship above?

As the number of trapezoids increases, the perimeter of the figure formed also increases. This relationship is represented by the following equation:

Perimeter = 2*(sum of all sides)

As more trapezoids are added, the sum of all sides of the figure increases, resulting in a larger perimeter.
