Answer:

44.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for shapes

[tex]P_A= 56cm[/tex]

Required

The perimeter of B

Let the length of a side of the square that makes up A be, l.

So, we have:

[tex]P_A = 10 * l[/tex] --- because A is formed by 10 sides of l

[tex]56 = 10 * l[/tex]

[tex]l =\frac{56}{10}[/tex]

[tex]l =5.6[/tex]

The perimeter of B is:

[tex]p_B = 8*l[/tex] --- because B is formed by 8 sides of l

[tex]p_B = 8*5.6[/tex]

[tex]p_B = 44.8[/tex]
