Answer:

3cm

Explanation:

Perimeter is the boundary or outer line of a shape

Rectangle has 4 sides.

2 sides of top and bottom, being the same size

And 2 sides of left and right sides being the same size.

Perimeter of Rectangle = 9+5+9+5 = 28

Regular Pentagon has 5 equal sides.

So perimeter is: 5+5+5+5+5 = 25

Difference is biggest take away smallest

Therefore 28-25 = 3

Answer = 3cm
