Answer:
97.69 in
Explanation:
You want the perimeter of a 17 in by 27 in rectangle that has a semicircular end.
Perimeter
The perimeter of the figure is the sum of the side lengths. The length of the curved side is half the circumference of the circle with the same diameter:
1/2 C = 1/2(πd) = (3.14/2)·(17 in)
The full perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the straight sides and this length of the curved side:
P = 17 + 27 + 17(3.14/2) + 27
P = 2(27) +17(1 +3.14/2) = 97.69 . . . . inches
The perimeter of the figure is 97.69 inches.
