They are the result of combining shapes, either by adding parts or taking parts away.
We calculate the perimeter of composite shapes by splitting them into simpler pieces and then calculating the perimeter of those simpler pieces.

A composite figure is a figure that is made up of several smaller geometric figures like triangles, circles, or rectangles.
To work out the area of a composite shape, you will have to divide it into smaller figures.
A composite figure is a figure that is made up of two or more geometric figures.
Perimeter is the distance around something. In the case of a circle (or other curved figures), this is simply called the perimeter, so I would say perimeter is the same as circumference. Except that it is uncommon to call the circumference of a circle the "perimeter".
You have to break the figure into smaller parts.Then add all the sides together.
