Percy and Caren are having a debate. Percy contends that the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense (also known as the Pentagon) has a longer perimeter than the United States Capitol. Caren contends the opposite. To settle their debate, they find satellite images of both buildings online and juxtapose them on a single coordinate grid (shown below). Assume the Pentagon is a regular pentagon with side length 300\,\text{m}300m300, start text, m, end text. The perimeter of the Pentagon is 1500 \text{m}mstart text, m, end text. The perimeter of the Capitol is \text{m}mstart text, m, end text. Round the final answer to the nearest meter. Do not round intermediate calculations. Who should win the debate? Choose 1 Choose 1 (Choice A) A Percy (Choice B) B Caren The coordinate values are in meters. The sizes of the actual Pentagon and Capitol are only somewhat close to the sizes shown in this problem. In particular, the Capitol is depicted a fair amount larger than it really is. Stuck?Watch a video or use a hint.
