https://hcbe.owschools.com/media/g_mat07_ccss_2016/9/img_composite_figure_5.gif What does the perimeter of this figure consist of? one semicircle and two line segments one semicircle and one line segment two semicircles and one line segment two semicircles and two line segments
What are your thoughts on it?
idk
If we erase the curved left and right edges, we end up with this |dw:1613079023676:dw|
adding in those curved portions back in gets us this |dw:1613079067057:dw|
Though we won't consider these shaded portions |dw:1613079146101:dw| since they are not on the exterior when we add on the curved portions
The perimeter only deals with the exterior sides
so will we be usind base and hight
we have these two straight segment portions |dw:1613079322746:dw|
and these two curved portions |dw:1613079357587:dw|
so is the 12 the base and the 4 the hight
for the rectangle, yes
and were going for perimiter right
yes the outer edges
ok so would there be another side
Another side?
im srry im just confused because every things happening to my family
The original figure is composed of two straight line segments along the top and bottom, and curved pieces on either side So that's why the answer is `two semicircles and two line segments` We do not consider the vertical dashed segments because they are not on the outside portion
ok
alright and i have one more thing
Whats that
ok so we will be using the same picture ok
What is the total perimeter of this figure? 24.56 ft 36.56 ft 30.28 ft 24.28 ft
The two curved portions can be combined together to form a full circle. Do you agree?
yes i agree
What is the circumference of the circle?
ummmm
thats a big word
idk
The perimeter around the circle
circumference = perimeter around the circle
idk
You'll use the formula C = pi*d where, C = circumference d = diameter
how could there be a perimeter around a circle
when its round
imagine you wrapped a string around the circle, or used a cloth tape measure. That's what we're measuring here
ok so if we used the measuring tape we would go off inches right
in this case, we're using feet
ok
So what we do is use this formula C = pi*d we can use pi = 3.14 d = 4
So C = pi*d C = 3.14*4 C = 12.56 Thats the distance around the circle, measured in feet. This is approximate.
wait when i look back on the picture the is 2 right angles https://hcbe.owschools.com/media/g_mat07_ccss_2016/9/img_composite_figure_5.gif
That isn't the final answer. You'll need to add on the straight line portions
don't worry about the angles
ok
how long are the straight line portions?
so how would u even get the tottle perimeter
The straight line portions are 12 ft each, agreed?
yes
and the sides will be 4 ft right
We would add two copies of 12 onto the 12.56 we found earlier 12.56+12+12 = 36.56 The final answer is 36.56 feet This is the distance around the entire track Imagine we had a string roughly 36.56 ft long. We can glue the string down to the track so that it fits the exact shape shown.
0k
ok so what if we did the same way but on this shape though https://hcbe.owschools.com/media/g_mat07_ccss_2016/9/img_composite_figure_7.gif
It's the same idea. The only difference is that the bottom curved portion is caved in, instead of popping out.
If the radius of one of the semicircles is 7 meters, what is the perimeter of the figure? 47.98 m 36.99 m 69.96 m 56.96 m and heres answers
radius = 7 leads to diameter = 14 you double the radius to get the diameter
Now use the formula C = pi*d pi = 3.14 d = 14 C = ???
so will we be multiply ing it
yes
3.14 times 14 = ??
ok the answer is 43.96
Thats just the curved portions. Don't forget about the straight portions
or did i get it wrong
you'll need to add on two copies of 13
so it would be 26
yeah add on 26
so u add those to it right
so if u add it it would be 69.96
69.96 is the answer, yes
ok
so back to the skate bord one
What is the circumference of one of the semicircles in this figure? 6.28 ft 12.56 ft 25.12 ft 50.24 ft
12.56 was the distance around the full circle but we want just half of that this is because semicircle = half circle
so we divide it right
yes divide by 2
e cut it in half
we
and when we divide it we get 6.28 right
yes 6.28
so back to the other one
If the radius of one of the semicircles is 7 meters, what is the circumference of one of the semicircles? 21.98 m 10.99 m 43.96 m 87.92 m
Tell me your thoughts on it
so were talking about this one
so and theres only one circle
u can make
how would you find the distance around the full circle?
circle with radius 7
by perimeter right
do you agree you use C = pi*d ?
u measure around the circle
explane the formula u are useing
we multiply pi with the diameter
pi = 3.14 approximately
so we times it by 7
7 is the radius, not the diameter
double the radius to get the diameter
so the radiuse is 14
diameter = 14
C = pi*d C = 3.14*14 C = ??
so we mutiply them both and u get 43.96
thats the distance around the full circle, but we only want half of that
since we want the semicircle distance
so we divide it by 2
yes
and that would be 21.98
correct
and thats the answer
now the new shape comes in
If the diameter of the semicircle is 1.7 centimeters, what is the circumference of the semicircle? 5.338 cm 10.676 cm 2.669 cm 1.3345 cm
how long is the diagonal piece? the dashed line
hint: pythagorean theorem
so we have have a circle and a right angle
for now, let's ignore the curved part
|dw:1613082101035:dw|
so if we take the half the circle out we get a triangle
what is the value of x in that diagram?
ig 24
or is it same thing 12
no, you'll need the pythagorean theorem
whats that
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 12^2 + 12^2 = x^2 x = ??
im lostwhats that
im in 7 not 12
theres noway i can do that
has your teacher talked about the pythagorean theorem at all?
no
it seems strange to ask a question you haven't covered yet. I would bring it up with the teacher
ook
well can u help me figure it out in a simple way
I'll try to think of a different approach
there has to be a short cut to get the answer
right
theres has to be
u there
ig not
Sorry I was looking for a shortcut, but I'm not seeing any so far
Are you able to contact your teacher?
shes not replying i can skip that question the rest are not 12 grade stuff so
alright
What is the total perimeter of this figure? Express your answer in feet. 64.26 ft 49.26 ft 76.26 ft 104.52 ft
Whats the distance around the curved portion?
what are u talking about
In the diagram you posted
yeah
whats the perimeter of the semicircle?
if im not mistaking the cutting line is 6 yds right
yes the dashed line is 6 yards long
consider a full circle with diameter 6 whats the distance around the full circle? what's half that distance?
ok so what will be the perimeter of the semi circle
use C = pi*d
that will get you the full circle perimeter
then of course you cut that in half
and how do i use that formula
multiply pi and the diameter
so the diameter is
6 right
yes
ok so u double it right
and itwould be 12
6 is the diameter, we dont need to double it
oh ok
its only if we have the radius and we want to find the diameter, is when we double
so now we need to figure what the other number is
soo we have 6
pi = 3.14
so we times it or divide it
C = pi*d C = 3.14*6 C = ??
so if we times it the answer will be 18.84 right
yes, now we cut that in half because we only want the semicircle (not full circle) distance
so we divide it by 2
yes
and itwould be 9.42
correct, now add that onto the straight line portions of the diagram
ignore the dashed line
so we add 15 plus 9.42 am i right
wait
what
we'll need to convert 15 ft to yards first
we can't add two different units without conversion
so how do we do that
1 yard = 3 ft 5 yards = 15 ft (multiply both sides by 5) So 15 ft is the same as 5 yards
so the vertical portions are 5 yards each
now you can add up the straight line portions to the curved portion found earlier
so it would be 5 yards right
yeah you'll have 2 copies of 5 yards
for the two vertical sides
so we mutiply it by 2
and it would be 25 yards
we add up the four sides 5+5+6+9.42 = 25.42 This is the total perimeter in yards Multiply by 3 to convert to feet 25.42*3 = 76.26 The final answer is 76.26 ft
wow i feel like im getting smarter by this one question
now back to the 12 grade one
What does the perimeter of this figure consist of? one semicircle and one line segment one semicircle and two line segments one semicircle and three line segments two semicircles and two line segments
`one semicircle and two line segments` The semicircle part is the curved portion The two segments are the vertical and horizontal straight pieces
now for the one we were just on What does the perimeter of this figure consist of? one semicircle and four line segments one semicircle and two line segments one semicircle and three line segments one semicircle and one line segment
Your thoughts?
hint: ignore the dashed line
ik its i semi circle and three line segments right
what do u think
correct
What is the circumference of the semicircle in this figure? Express your answer in feet. 18.84 ft 6.28 ft 56.52 ft 28.26 ft
now ik it would be 18.84 what do u think
am i correct
remember 18.84 was the full distance around this circle, but we only want half of it
oh ok ig im wrong i was a little to Oreosy
coky
ik i spelled it wrong
back to question
so we divide it by 2
yes
and we will get 9.42 am i right
correct
so now what
9.42 is the answer
wait, I keep forgetting to convert
multiply by 3 to convert from yards to feet
it cant be cause its not one of the answers on the thing
9.42*3 = ??
it would be 28.26
now thats the answer
wow i got 76
thx alot
i hope u can be my teacher again some day
no problem
