=> Opp sides of ||gm and rect are equal.
=> AB = DC
=> AB = EF
=> DC = EF (1)
=> AB + DC
= AB + EF (Adding AB in both sides) (2)
=> The perpendicular segment is the shortest
=> BE < BC & AF < AD
=> BC > BE & AD > AF
=> BC + AD > BE + AF (3) => Adding (2) and (3)
=> AB + DC + BC + AD > AB + EF + BE + AF
=> AB + BC + CD + DA > AB + BE + EF +FA
=> P of ABCD > P of ABEF
