Answer:

We will find the distance of the outward boundaries only as explained below.

Explanation:

-A composite geometric figure is a figure that is made up of different two dimensional figures such as triangles, squares, circles and such to form one figure.

-The perimeter of the composite figure is obtained by finding the distance around the figure.

-Only the outside boundaries not joined by another are measured for perimeter purposes.

-For composite figures with a circle component, we will use the
\pi D to find perimeter for only that section and add it to the other measurements.
