Answer:166.2 feet^2

Explanation:

By assuming that Pete's yard is a rectangle, we can get the perimeter by using an equation that looks like this:

perimeter = l+l+w+w

Where l = length, and w = width.

This is because you are adding the measures of every side together, which is the definition of the value of a perimeter.

Furthermore, to get the area of the figure, you would need to multiply 52.7 by 30.4, which would be 1602.08 feet^2
