Answer: 28.26 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to find the perimeter of the semicircle.

P = (2 π r ) /2 (perimeter of a circle divided by 2)

The length of AB is the diameter of the circle (18 meters)

Since

Diameter (d) = 2 radius (r)

Replacing with the value given:

18 =2r

18/2=r

9 =r

Back on the perimeter formula

P = (2 π r ) /2

Replacing with the values given

P = (2 x 3.14 x 9) /2

P = 28.26 meters

In quadrilateral ABDC, AB ∥ CD. Which additional piece of information is needed to determine that ABDC is a parallelogram?
N76 [4]
Since the definition of a parallelogram literally says that it's a quadrilateral with 2 parallel sides, we have AB || CD so the 2 other sides (AC and BD) need to be either similar or parallel (either works, due to that if they're similar we can prove that since AB || CD that they're parallel). B is our answer

Which of the following statements about its area will be true? Please help asap
never [62]

Answer:

the fourth answer

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because 6 x 10 is 60, and is you multiply the height by 3 it gives you 3(6) x 10 which can also be written as 18 x 10 which is equal to 180

divide 180 by 60 which will give you 3, this shows you that the growth from the original area to the new area is 3 times, so the ratio is 3:1
