To find the perimeter of the given parallelogram, we need to sum the lengths of all its sides.

In the provided diagram, we have:
- One side labeled as 6 inches
- The opposite side also measuring 6 inches (since opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal)
- One side labeled as 8 inches
- The opposite side also measuring 8 inches (for the same reason)

So, the perimeter \( P \) is calculated as:
\[
P = 2 \times ( \text{Length} + \text{Width} ) = 2 \times (6 \, \text{inches} + 8 \, \text{inches}) = 2 \times 14 \, \text{inches} = 28 \, \text{inches}
\]

Therefore, the perimeter of the parallelogram is \( 28 \) inches.
