An unlimited sequence of equilateral are inscribed one within another by joining the midpoints of the sides of each preceding square. If the initial equilateral is 8 cm on a side, calculate the sum of the perimeters of these squares.

The sides of a square are 8 cm long. A new square is formed by joining the midpoints of the adjacent sides, and two of the resulting triangles are shaded as shown. This process is repeated 5 more times to form the right-hand diagram below. (a) Find the total area of the shaded region in the right-hand diagram above. (b) Find the total area of the shaded region if the process is repeated indefinitely.
