The parameter of a square is equal to the perimeter of a rectangle of length 8 cm and breadth 6 cm. Find the circumference of a semicircle whose diameter is equal to the side of the square.
[ "23.59", "23.55", "11.0", "23.53" ]
C
Let the side of the square be a cm. Parameter of the rectangle = 2(8 + 6) = 28 cm Parameter of the square = 28 cm i.e. 4a = 28 A = 7 Diameter of the semicircle = 7 cm Circimference of the semicircle = 1/2(∏)7 = 1/2(22/7)(7) = 11 cm Answer:E
