Answer:
The perimeter of the shape below is 44.48cm
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the perimeter of this figure we have to add
7cm + 12cm + 7cm + (
perimeter of semicircle)
To calculate the perimeter of the semicircle we have to use the following equation
d = 12cm
r = d/2 = 12cm/2 = 6cm
c = perimeter of semicircle
r = radius = 6cm
π = 3.14
c = π * r
we replace with the known values
c = * 3.14 * 6cm
c = 18.84cm
The perimeter of the semicircle is 18.84cm
Now that we have this value we can calculate the perimeter of the figure
7cm + 12cm + 7cm + (
18.84cm
) = 44.48cm
