Answer:

The perimeter of polygon B is 1125 units.

Explanation:

Given information is :

Polygon A is similar to polygon B.

The sides of polygon A are 1/5 the length of corresponding sides of polygon B.

The perimeter of polygon A is 225.

Let the perimeter of polygon B be = x

So, relation forms:


(1)/(5)=(225)/(x)


x=225*5=1125

So, the perimeter of polygon B is 1125 units.
