The length of diagonal EK is sqrt(5^2 + 4^2) ≈ 6.403m

 

Hence perimeter = 2*(12 + 6.403) → 36.8 m (to the nearest tenth of a metre)

The perimeter of the cross-section is 36.8 m.

Calculations and Parameters:

Given that the length of diagonal EK is

[tex]\sqrt{(5^2 + 4^2) }[/tex]

≈ 6.403m

Thus, the perimeter would be

2*(12 + 6.403)

→ 36.8 m.
