Solution Steps

Step 1: Find the lengths of the other two sides

A rectangle has two pairs of sides with equal lengths. We are given that one side has length 6 yd and the adjacent side has length 4 yd. The lengths of the other two sides are also 6 yd and 4 yd respectively.

Step 2: Sum the lengths of all four sides

Perimeter is the sum of all sides. $P = 6 \text{ yd} + 4 \text{ yd} + 6 \text{ yd} + 4 \text{ yd}$

Step 3: Calculate the perimeter

$P = (6 + 4 + 6 + 4) \text{ yd} = 20 \text{ yd}$

Final Answer:

The perimeter of the rectangle is 20 yd.
