Answer:

hope it helps

Explanation:

angle < EDG = 90°

5x + 4x = 90

9x = 90

x = 90/9

x = 10°

which means

5x = 50°

4x = 40°

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

sice EF and DG are parallel lines

EHD = 40°

DHG is 90°

then HGD = 50°

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

ED = 64 x2 (2 sides) = 128 inches

DG = 84 x2 (2 sides) = 168 inches

total perimeter = 128 + 168 = 296 inches

and yes. theres enough room for all 3 to cuddle
