Question:

The diameter of a semi circle is 5.6 m. What is its perimeter (in m, correct to one decimal place)? (Take $ \pi = \frac{22}{7}$)

Options:

11.2

8.8

14.4

17.6

Correct Answer:

14.4

Explanation:

We know that,

Circumference of a semicircle = πr + 2r

We have,

Diameter of a circle = 5.6m

Then, Radius of semicircle = 5.6/2 = 2.8 m

Circumference of a semicircle = 22/7 × 2.8 + 2 × 2.8 = 14.4 m
