Answer:

P = 40.56 ft

Explanation:

The figure is composed of a rectangle and half circle

The perimeter of the figure = the length of the borders round the figure

= W + 2L + ½(perimeter of full circle)

W = 8 ft

L = 10 ft

½(perimeter of circle) = ½(πd) = ½(3.14*8)

= 12.56 ft

Plug in the values

Perimeter of the figure = 8 + 2(10) + 12.56

= 8 + 20 + 12.56

= 40.56 ft
