To find the perimeter and area of the rectangle shown in the image, we can use the following formulas based on the provided dimensions.

Given:

• Length, $l = 17$ meters
• Width, $w = 8$ meters

Formulas:

1. Perimeter of a Rectangle: $P = 2 \times (l + w)$
2. Area of a Rectangle: $A = l \times w$

Solution:

1. Perimeter: $P = 2 \times (17 + 8) = 2 \times 25 = 50 \, \text{m}$

2. Area: $A = 17 \times 8 = 136 \, \text{m}^2$

Answer:

• The perimeter is $50 \, \text{m}$.
• The area is $136 \, \text{m}^2$.
