To find the perimeter of the figure, you simply add up the lengths of all the sides.

From your description, we have the following lengths:

  • Two sides of 19 yards
  • Two sides of 7 yards
  • Two sides of 26 yards

Now, we can calculate the perimeter:

\[ \text{Perimeter} = 19 + 19 + 7 + 7 + 26 + 26 \]

Calculating this step by step:

  1. \( 19 + 19 = 38 \)
  2. \( 7 + 7 = 14 \)
  3. \( 26 + 26 = 52 \)

Now, add all these results together:

\[ \text{Perimeter} = 38 + 14 + 52 \]

First, add \( 38 + 14 = 52 \).

Now, add \( 52 + 52 = 104 \).

Therefore, the perimeter of the figure is \( 104 \) yards.

So, the final response is:

\[ \text{Perimeter} = 104 \text{ yd} \]
