From the above diagram,
AB = DC = 8, BC=AD=6 and the diagonal AC form a Pythagoras theorem from both the triangles(ABC and ACD).
Finally, the required distance will be;
AB + DC + BC + AD + AC = 38.
AB = DC = 8, BC=AD=6 and the diagonal AC form a Pythagoras theorem from both the triangles(ABC and ACD).
Finally, the required distance will be;
AB + DC + BC + AD + AC = 38.

@K Anil.
They have clearly mentioned in the question that "a diagonal" that means a single diagonal because 'a' article is used for a single thing or element.

@Vaishali that actually doesn't matter.
You can take BD also as a diagonal even then the answer will be the same.

Since its a parallelogram so AB = DC and BC = AD and also ADC is a right triangle (ANGLE ADC = 90°). By this we can find the solution.
