Question

Find the arc length of the semicircle. Either enter an exact answer in terms of π or use 3.14 for π and enter your answer as a decimal.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the length of an arc is s = rФ.

Thus, the arc length of a semicircle is S = rФ/2.

Here the radius is 5 (half the diameter), and so in this case the arc length is

S = (5 units)π/2, or S = (5/2)(3.14) units, or approximately S = 7.85 units
