Answer:

37.2 units.

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, the major principle to be applied is the circle's theorem below.

By the circle's theorem, tangents to a circle from the same point are equal in length.

Thus, we have the diagram below:

Therefore, the perimeter of the polygon is:


\begin{gathered} 14+12.6+6+4.6 \\ =37.2\text{ units} \end{gathered}

The perimeter is 37.2 units.
