A new park is being built in the city. In the park, there will be a cemented walkway that will wind through the park. The walkway will be completely enclosed by a short, gated fence that will line the path on all sides of the path. The blueprint for the pathway is shown in the coordinate plane below. Each square unit in the coordinate grid represents 1 square yard.
