Jenny is building a rectangular garden around a tree in her yard. the southwest corner of the garden will be 2 feet south and 3
feet west of the tree. the northeast corner of the garden is 1 foot north and 4 feet east of the tree. what will be the perimeter of jenny's garden? a. 10 ft
b. 20 ft
c. 21 ft
d. 25 ft
3 feet west + 4 feet east means that the length of the rectangle is 7 2 feet south and 1 foot north means that the height (or width) 3. Since the rectangle is 3 ft by 7ft the total distance around (perimeter) is 2 (l+w) or in this case 2 (7 +3) = 2 (10) = 20 ft Answer b Drawing a picture helps.
