Answer
$P$ = 38 m
$A$ = 39 m$^{2}$
Work Step by Step
To find the perimeter add all of the length of sides together.
$P$ = 7 m + 3 m + 5 m + 9 m + 2 m + 12 m
$P$ = 38 m
To find the area we can break the shape into two rectangles. The first measuring 7 m x 3 m and the second measuring 9 m x 2 m. Find the area of each and then add the results together to determine the total area.
$A_{1}$ = 7 m * 3 m
$A_{1}$ = 21 m$^{2}$
$A_{2}$ = 9 m * 2 m
$A_{2}$ = 18 m$^{2}$
$A$ = A$_{1}$ + A$_{2}$
$A$ = 21 m$^{2}$ + 18 m$^{2}$
$A$ = 39 m$^{2}$
