Length of tape required to cover the edges of a semicircular disc of radius 10 cm is (a) 62.8 cm (b) 51.4 cm (c) 31.4 cm (d) 15.7 cm
Show solutionHide solution
Solution:-
(b) 51.4 cm
From the question, it is given that, radius of semicircular disc 10 cm
We know that, perimeter of semicircular disc = circumference of semicircle + diameter
Circumference of semicircle = 2πr/2
= πr
= (22/7) × 10
= 31.4 cm
Then, total tape required = 31.4 + 10 + 10
= 51.4 cm
