Answer:

Perimeter = 114ft²

Explanation:

Area = Length * Width

Substitute

680 = Length * 17

Represent length as a variable

Length = L

680 = L * 17

Multiply

680 = 17L

Simplify

L = 40

Perimeter = 2(L) + 2(17)

Perimeter = 2L + 34

Substitute

Perimeter = 2(40) + 34

Perimeter = 80 + 34

Perimeter = 114ft²

Hope this was useful to you!
