Question

8) The sides of a flower garden are shown in the diagram below. What is the perimeter of the flower garden? 4m 2 m​

Answer 1

Answer:

18.28 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the flower garden in the question :

The shape is composite and can be divided into 2 semicirles and rectangle

The perimeter of a semicircle is the Circumference of the semicircle = πr

Hence, 2 semicirles = 2πr

Radius of semicircle = 2/2 = 1

Perimeter = 2 * 3.14 * 1² = 2 * 3.14 * 1 = 6.28 m

The perimeter of rectangle; length and width are 6m and 2 m respectively :

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + w) = 2(4+2) = 2(6) = 12m

Tve perimeter of garden = 6.28 + 12 = 18.28 m
