Find the length of the diagonal

\[

$$\begin{aligned} &d = 2 \times 10 = 20 \end{aligned}$$

\]

Find the unknown side length using the Pythagorean theorem

\[

$$\begin{aligned} &12^2 + w^2 = 20^2 \\ &144 + w^2 = 400 \\ &w^2 = 256 \\ &w = 16 \end{aligned}$$

\]

Calculate the perimeter of the rectangle

\[

$$\begin{aligned} &P = 2(12 + 16) = 2(28) = 56 \end{aligned}$$

\]
