To find the perimeter of a quadrilateral, we need to add up the lengths of all its sides.

Given that $$ x = 8 $$ and $$ y = 5 $$, we can assume that the quadrilateral has sides of length $$ x $$ and $$ y $$.

Let's denote the sides of the quadrilateral as follows:
- Side 1: $$ x $$
- Side 2: $$ y $$
- Side 3: $$ x $$
- Side 4: $$ y $$

The perimeter of the quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of all its sides:
$$ \text{Perimeter} = x + y + x + y $$

Substitute the given values:
$$ \text{Perimeter} = 8 + 5 + 8 + 5 $$

Now, let's calculate the perimeter.
Calculate the value by following steps:
- step0: Calculate:
  $$8+5+8+5$$
- step1: Add the numbers:
  $$26$$
The perimeter is $$ 8 + 5 + 8 + 5 = 26 $$.
