A straight boardwalk is being built over a
circular wetlands area, so that it divides
the area in half. A hiking path goes around
the outside. The boardwalk is 50 m long.
How long is the hiking path that goes
around the wetlands?

Sagot :

Answer:

157 if youre going by 3.14

157.08 if youre going by π

Step-by-step explanation:

you want to find the circumference

circumference is 2πr

the radius id 50/2=25, because radius is half of the diameter (the diameter is the length across a circle

2 * 3.141 * 25 = 157

The length of the path that goes around the outside of the circle stands at 157.08 meters.

What is a circle?

A circle stands as a curve traced out by a point moving in a plane so that its distance from a given point exists constant; alternatively, it stands for the shape created by all points in a plane that exists at a set distance from a given point, the center.

Given that the boardwalk divides the circle area into two halves, and exists straight with a length of 50 meters. Thus, the straight Boardwalk exists within the length of the diameter of the circle.

Now, the perimeter of the circle exists the length of the path that goes around the outside.

Thus, the perimeter of the circle stands,

Perimeter = π × Diameter

        = π × 50 meters

        = 157.07963 meters ≈ 157.08 meters

Thus, the length of the path that goes around the outside of the circle exists 157.08 meters.
