Find the perimeter and area of the polygon shown below. P= 72 feet, A = 300 square feet
O P = 56 feet, A = 308 square feet
P= 87 feet, A = 360 square feet
P = 72 feet, A = 308 square feet

A. P = 72 feet, A = 300 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Perimeter = sum of all sides of the polygon = 15 + 16 + 17 + 8 + 16 = 72 ft

✔️Area of the polygon = area of a trapezoid = ½(a + b)h

Where,

a = 16 ft

b = 16 + 8 = 24 ft

h = 15 ft

Substitute

Area = ½(16 + 24)15

Area = ½(40)15

Area = 300 ft²

step-by-step explanation:
