Find the Perimeter of the figure below, composed of a parallelogram and one semicircle. Rounded to the nearest tenths place

please don't answer if you are wrong

Answer 1

38.3

Explanation:

The perimeter of the figure can be broken down into the perimeter of 3 sides of the parallelogram, and the perimeter of the semicircle (without its diameter).

The three sides of the parallelogram would be 14+14+4=32.

The perimeter of the semicircle would be 1/2*diameter*pi, which is about 1/2*4*3.14=6.28.

Therefore, the perimeter is 32+6.28=38.3 (to the nearest tenths).
