Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The perimeter is the distance around the rectangle. You have used the word height, but I will replace it with the word width because the word height is usually used with 3D shapes.

If W is the width and the length is L, the formula for the perimeter is 2W+2L=P.

We can plug in the numbers we already have to solve for L, the length of our base.

2(14.2)+2L=66

28.4+2L=66

We subtract 28.4 from both sides.

2L=37.6

We divide both sides by 2.

L=18.8

The length of the base is 18.8 meters.

Have a wonderful day!

Answer:

  (d) No, the figures are different sizes

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruent figures have corresponding sides the same length. A'''B''' is not the same length as AB, so the figures cannot be congruent.

__

Congruence is sometimes shown by identifying rigid transformations that map one figure onto another. Rigid transformations preserve size. The sizes these figures are different, so rigid transformations cannot be used to map one figure to the other. The appropriate statement of this is choice D.
