A small town in Louisiana is over 300 years old. Over the years as the town grew, the property owners established the property lines informally using landmarks to determine property division. However, due to a recent property dispute, the town council has drafted a new law that all property markers and boundaries need to be well defined by modern standards. The law also states property divisions must be fenced. Along with the boundaries and fences, the town council is also instituting a yearly property tax to help build a new school. Property tax will be assessed at the rate of $1.00 per 100 square feet. Landowners can offset their property tax burden this year by the amount it will cost them to build a fence around their property. To establish the taxes and build fences, people need to know the perimeter and area of their property. Mr. Augustin (A), Mrs. Bertrand (B), Mrs. Chaisson (C), and Old Farmer Daigle (D) have hired a land surveyor to mark and measure their property lines so they can install fences and pay their taxes. Use the property shapes and dimensions in the following image to answer the questions below (all dimensions in the image are in feet. Drawing is not to scale; all of the sub-shapes are triangles, rectangles, parallelograms, rhombi, or trapezoids.):
