Answer:

A = 84.1² meters

P = 40.6 meters

Explanation:

Hint

Area: To find area, multiply width times length (don't forget to add the ² at the end)

Solving (Area)

14.5 · 5.8 = 84.1² meters

Hint

Perimeter: To find perimeter, add width plus width plus length plus length (doing width times 2 plus length times 2 also works)

Solving (Perimeter)

14.5 + 14.5 + 5.8 + 5.8 = 40.6 meters

14.5(2) + 5.8(2) = 40.6 meters
