8. The figure below shows a flower garden with the dimensions shown. Calculate the perimeter P = Distance AB around the figure.
The figure shows a shape that is essentially a rectangle with a quarter-circle arc added to one corner.
Let's identify the segments of the perimeter:
- The top horizontal straight segment has a length of 18 m.
- The right vertical straight segment has a length of 9.1 m.
- The bottom horizontal straight segment has a length of 18 m.
- The left vertical straight segment has a length of 9.1 m.
- The arc is a quarter circle with a radius of $
