SOLUTION

The diagram below can help us answer the question

Perimeter is the distance around a plane shape. We are told that side c is 9meters and side d is 2meters. So the other side becomes


9-2=7meters\text{ }

And the other, 7 - 5 = 2 meters

The perimeter becomes


\begin{gathered} 5+2+2+7+7+9 \\ =32\text{ meters } \end{gathered}

Hence the answer is 32 meters, option B
