What is the approximate perimeter of the figure? A. 3.1 inches B. 6.3 inches C. 7.1 inches D. 12.3 inches

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

posting the figure give me a sec

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The perimeter of a circle is 2π.radius, as it is 1/4 of a circle this perimeter will be P=π.radius/2+2.radius

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

3.14 x 4 = 12.56? @gaos √ or x

OpenStudy (awesomeadam65):

you divide it

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

by 4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3.14x4/2=6.28

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

Oh oops! My mistake... Xp Thank you! ^u^

OpenStudy (awesomeadam65):

so its B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, itunot done yet. I want now that you solve 6.26+2.radius

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

oh

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

8.26

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And the radius is 2 not 4.

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

ya i did 6.26 + 2

geerky42 (geerky42):

Circumference is \(2\pi r\) So since we havee 1/4 the circle, we have \(\dfrac{C}{4} = \dfrac{\pi r}{2}\)

geerky42 (geerky42):

Then you add radius twice.

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

12.56 -3- ?

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

wait no 8.28

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So in fact P=3.14.2/2+2.2 P=3.14+4 P=7.14

geerky42 (geerky42):

So perimeter is pretty much \(\dfrac{\pi r}{2}+r+r\)
