You ordered a desk that will fit the space, and also finished painting the walls and ceiling. Now, you plan to place sound-reducing panels around the perimeter of the room to improve the acoustics of the space and reduce echo.

Recall that the room’s dimensions are:

Width: 12 ft.

Length: 13 ft.

Height: 8 ft.

What's the perimeter of the room?
