Answer:

(a) Pentagon

(b) Perimeter= 1435cm

Explanation:

Given


Side\ lengths: 3.65m, 2.24m, 2.57m, 2.24m, 3.65m

Though the question has a missing attachment, it can still be answered

Solving (a): The name of the polygon

Since we are given 5 side lengths, we can say that the polygon has 5 sides.

Such polygon is referred to as, a pentagon

Solving (b): The perimeter (in cm)

To do this, we simply add up the side lengths


Side\ lengths: 3.65m, 2.24m, 2.57m, 2.24m, 3.65m


Perimeter= 3.65m+ 2.24m+ 2.57m+ 2.24m+ 3.65m


Perimeter= 14.35m

Convert to cm


Perimeter= 14.35*100cm


Perimeter= 1435cm
