Larger triangle’s base length

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 3^2 = 8^2
a^2 = 8^2 - (3^2)
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(55)
a = sqrt(55)
__________________

Smaller triangle’s base length:

The same formula applies.
a^2 + 3^2 = 5^2
a^2 = 5^2 - (3^2)
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(16)
a = 4
____________

The finale!

Add the two side lengths of a, which is sqrt(55) + 4 (exact answer)
or... 11.416 (unrounded to thousandths place)

Good luck to you!
