Step-by-Step Solution

The boundary is the semicircular arc plus the straight edge along the diameter: π cm. The trap 22 is the arc alone, with the straight edge left out — a semicircle's boundary is not merely half a circumference; 44 is the full circle's circumference; 58 adds the diameter to that full circumference.
