Answer:

No, 10 feet of board is not enough.

Explanation:

To find the perimeter of a rectangle, add all side lengths. Since one side is 2 feet and one side is 4 feet, add both sides. 4 + 2 = 6. Next, since it is a rectangle, multiply by 2. 6 x 2 = 12. The perimeter of the rectangle is 12 feet, so 10 feet of board wouldn't be enough.
