Find the perimeter. Approximate the result to the nearest tenth using 3.14 for π.

In order to find the perimeter of this figure, let's calculate the length of the semicircle at the top of the figure.
The diameter of the semicircle is equal to 5 meters, so the radius (which measures half the diameter) is equal to 2.5 meters.
Now, to calculate the length of the semicircle, we can use the formula below:
[tex]\begin{gathered} C=\pi r \\ C=3.14\cdot2.5 \\ C=7.85 \end{gathered}[/tex]Calculating the perimeter of the figure, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} P=7.85+9+5+9 \\ P=30.85 \end{gathered}[/tex]Rounding to the nearest tenth (half even method), we have a perimeter of 30.8 meters.
