Hi, basically I’m really confused on how to work out this question. I’ve tried, but tbh I’m not sure where to start. Any help would be appreciated

Well, what's the length BF? And if FBC is a quarter circle, what length does CF have to be?

I know that BF = 9, but I’m not completely sure on CF. I was guessing that would be 9 too, but idk? 😬

Can you work out the length B to C?
What about the triangle length C to D and the perimeter of the rectangle BAED

You can subtract FC from 41 to get the unknown length of the rectangle at the bottom, which gives you 2 other parts of the perimeter
Finally you need the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle, so you should be good to go

Correct. You have a quarter circle and angle BFC is 90 degrees, so BF and CF are radii. You can use this to get the perimeter of the quarter circle.

Well BF and CF are both radii (radius’) of the circle, so it’s makes sense that they are te same value

Would BC be (pi x 18) divided by 4, and to find CD, I could just use Pythagoras?

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you - yes to both of your questions!
