Question

What shape is created by the rotation and what is the

Answer 1

Answer:

Option D: A cylinder with a circumference of about 50 units​

Step-by-step explanation:

The rest of the question is the attached figure.

The square shown has a perimeter of 32 units. The square is rotated about line k. What shape is created by the rotation and what is the approximate circumference of the base? Circumference of a circle: C = 2πr

===================================================

Given:  the perimeter of the square = 32

perimeter of a square is four times the length of its side

So, the side length of square = 32/4 = 8 units

The square is rotated about line k.

So, it will form a cylinder with radius 8 units.

Circumference of a circle = 2 π r

Where, r is the radius of the circle.

Circumference of the base is C = 2 π * 8

∴ C = 16π = 16 * 3.14

∴ C = 50.26548 ≈ 50

The shape is created by the rotation is a cylinder with a circumference of about 50 units.

So, the answer option is D.
