Question

Charlie measured the circle-shaped part of a sun his sister drew on the chalkboard. The circumference of the circle is 75.36 cm. What is the diameter? (Use 3.14 for .)

Answer 1

Answer:

The diameter of circle is 24 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Circumference of circle = 75.36 cm

We have to find the diameter of the circle.

Circumference of circle =

$C =2\pi r$

where r is the radius of the circle.

Putting values, we get,

$75.36 = 2\times 3.14\times r\\\\r = \dfrac{75.36}{2\times 3.14}\\\\r=12$

Diameter of circle =

$d=2r\\d=2\times 12=24\text{ cm}$

Thus, the diameter of circle is 24 cm.
