Answer: AE = 120.83 m DE= 148.66 m
The perimeter of the pentagon is 699.49
Sketch attached.
Step-by-step explanation: First we have to imagine the shape of the pentagon. In order to satisfy the requirement "that E is 50 m from the side AB and 30 m from the side BC," <em><u>this must be a concave pentagon. </u></em>
To determine the lengths of sides AE and DE, subtract the given distances of E from the lines, and use those values in the Pythagorean Theorem.
AE:
DE:
Add those lengths and the remaining sides of the "rectangle shown below" to calculate the perimeter.
280+150+120.83+148.66= 699.49
