The distance around the out side of a figure is?
You get a curve. If you join them along the shortest [Euclidean] distance between them, you get a straight line.
If the shape is circle then circumference. If any other form (non-symmetrical) then you can measure the area with integration from Calculus.
that distance is called the perimeter of the figure.
The distance around a figure is called the "perimeter", unless the figure is a circle - in that case, it is called the "circumference".
The distance around the out side of a figure is?
It is the perimeter.
To find the distance around a figure, you calculate the perimeter. The perimeter is the total distance around the outside of a shape or figure. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square, you add up all the sides. For a circle, you can find the perimeter by multiplying the diameter by π (pi).
You get a curve. If you join them along the shortest [Euclidean] distance between them, you get a straight line.
The distance round a closed figure is the perimeter.

In general, travelers use maps to help them figure out distance.
It is the total distance around the figure
yes but the figure is a closed curve. The distance around an object is the perimeter.
