The stained glass window below is a semicircle. What is the distance around the window to the nearest hundredth of an inch? Use 3.14 for π.

The area of a circle is given by the formula

area=πr2

we have the value of π=3.14 , and the radius is taken from the diameter of the window (bottom edge), using the relation:

r=diameter

2r=362

r=18

By substituting these values to the formula of a circle, we now have:

area= (3.14 )  (18) 2

area=1017.36

But since the window is a semicircle, the area will have to be divided in half, therefore,

area of a semicircle =1017.362

area of a semicircle = 508.68

Thus the window's area is equal to 508.68 sq in.

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^
