here are the perimeters of the shapes:
1)
This shape is a semicircle.
Step 1: Calculate the length of the curved part.
The diameter () is . The curved part is half the circumference of a circle. The formula for the circumference of a circle is . We are given .
Step 2: Calculate the total perimeter.
The perimeter is the sum of the straight side (diameter) and the curved part.
The perimeter of shape 1 is .
2)
This shape consists of a quarter circle, a semicircle, and a straight line segment.
Step 1: Identify the dimensions.
The straight line segment is . This is the radius of the quarter circle () and also the diameter of the semicircle ().
Step 2: Calculate the arc length of the quarter circle.
Step 3: Calculate the arc length of the semicircle.
Step 4: Calculate the total perimeter.
The perimeter of shape 2 is .
3)
This shape is a rectangle with a semicircle cut out from the top.
Step 1: Identify the lengths of the straight sides.
The bottom side is . The two vertical sides are each. The two small straight segments on the top are each.
Step 2: Determine the diameter of the inner semicircle.
The total length of the top edge of the rectangle is . The two small straight segments are each. So, the diameter of the semicircle () is .
Step 3: Calculate the arc length of the inner semicircle.
Step 4: Calculate the total perimeter.
The perimeter of shape 3 is .
4)
This shape is composed of four semicircles.
Step 1: Identify the diameter of each semicircle.
The dashed lines indicate a central square with sides of . Each semicircle has a diameter () equal to the side of this square, so .
Step 2: Calculate the arc length of one semicircle.
Step 3: Calculate the total perimeter.
Since there are four such semicircles, the total perimeter is four times the arc length of one semicircle.
The perimeter of shape 4 is .
5)
This shape is a rectangle with two semicircles on its ends.
Step 1: Identify the dimensions.
The '7' indicates the length of the straight rectangular part is . The vertical dashed lines show that the diameter of each semicircle () is also .
Step 2: Calculate the total perimeter.
The perimeter consists of two straight sides and the circumference of one full circle (formed by the two semicircles).
