Answer:

19
\pi + 76 mm

Explanation:

First, use the circumference formula to find the perimeter of the entire circle:

c = 2
\pir

c = 2
\pi(38)

c = 76
\pi

Divide this by 4, since the question asks for the perimeter of the quarter circle:

76
\pi/4

= 19
\pi

19
\pi is the arc length section of the perimeter. The length of the other 2 sides of the perimeter, formed by the radius, can be found by doubling 38.

38(2) = 76

Add this to 19
\pi:

19
\pi + 76

So, the expression is 19
\pi + 76 mm
