Answer

The Perimeter of the figure is\[32\text{ ft}\].

Work Step by Step

The Perimeter (P) of compound shapes can be determined by adding all its sides. The perimeter of the compound figure can be done by using the formula as mentioned below: \[P=\text{Sum of all sides}\] The side of the figure is given. Compute the perimeter of the figure as shown below: \[\begin{align} & P=\text{Sum of all sides} \\ & =4\text{ ft}+6\text{ ft}+3\text{ ft}+3\text{ ft}+7\text{ ft}+9\text{ ft} \\ & =32\text{ ft} \end{align}\]
