Question

The figure below shows the ideal pattern of movement of a herd of cattle, with the arrows showing the movement of the handler as he moves the herd. The arc the handler makes from the starting point to the return point should be a quarter of a circle. Based on this theory, what distance will the handler move from the starting point to the return point if he creates an arc of a circle of radius 75 feet?

Answer 1

if the perimeter of a circle is 2*pi*Radius .....

Answer 2

the arc is one quatre the circumference of a circle

Answer 3

then itd be 2*pi*75 which is 471

Answer 4

then itd be 471 divided by 4?

Answer 5

yes

Answer 6

and then he has to return to the starting point so double that

Answer 7

i got 235.3 after doubling it

Answer 8

but it says from starting point to return point...

Answer 9

Answer 11

the question is confusing

what distance will the handler move from the starting point to the return point ,

i guess you dont need to calculate there and back, just there,
you didn't have to double
