The perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a geometric figure. To find the perimeter of this figure you can add the straight sides and then add the perimeter of a circle with a radius equal to 2.

Then, you have


\begin{gathered} \text{ Perimeter of the region }=2in+6in+2in+6in+\text{ Perimeter of the circle} \\ \text{ Perimeter of the region }=16in+\text{ Perimeter of the circle} \end{gathered}

The formula to find the perimeter of a circle is


\begin{gathered} \text{Perimeter of the circle }=2\pi r \\ \text{Where r is the radius of the circle} \end{gathered}

So,


\begin{gathered} \text{Perimeter of the circle }=2\pi r \\ \text{Perimeter of the circle }=2\pi\cdot2in \\ \text{Perimeter of the circle }=12.57in \end{gathered}

Finally, the perimeter of the region will be 28.57 inches.


\begin{gathered} \text{ Perimeter of the region }=16in+\text{ Perimeter of the circle} \\ \text{ Perimeter of the region }=16in+12.57in \\ \text{ Perimeter of the region }=28.57in \end{gathered}
