Answer: If polygon is a square, a = 51/2 = 25.5 units

If polygon is an equilateral triangle, a = 34 units

...

Explanation:

Hello, I need more information. Is this 2 dimensional object a square, a rectangle, a triangle?

If this polygon is a square with side length a, then:

Perimeter = 4a = 102 ; a = 102/4 = 51/2 units

-----------------

If this polygon is a equilateral triangle with side length a, then:

P = 3a = 102; a = 102/3 = 34 units
