What is the approximate circumference of the circle shown below? A.102.4 cm B. 63.4 cm C. 25.6 cm D. 51.2 cm class=

Answer :

Answer

Formula

[tex]Circumference\ of\ circle = 2\pi r[/tex]

where r is the radius of a circle.

As shown in the image

Diameter of the circle = 16 .3 cm

[tex]Radius\ of\ the\ circle = \frac{16.3}{2}[/tex]

                                   = 8.15 cm

Put in the formula

[tex]Circumference\ of\ circle = 2\pi\times 8.15[/tex]

As

[tex]\pi = 3.14[/tex]

[tex]Circumference\ of\ circle = 2\times 3.14\times 8.15[/tex]

                                                 = 51.2 cm (approx)

Therefore the circumference of a circle is 51.2cm (approx) .

Option (D) is correct .

The circumference of the circle [tex]\boxed{51.2{\text{ cm}}}.[/tex] Option (D) is correct.

Further explanation:

The formula for the circumference of the circle can be expressed as follows,

[tex]\boxed{{\text{Circumference of circle}} = 2\pi r}[/tex]

The formula for the area of the circle can be expressed as follows,

[tex]\boxed{{\text{Area of circle}} = \pi {r^2}}[/tex]

Here, “r” represents the radius of the circle.

The relationship between the radius and the diameter can be given by,

[tex]\boxed{r =\dfrac{d}{2}}[/tex]

Here, “d” represents the diameter of the circle.

Given:

The options are as follows.

A.[tex]102.4{\text{ cm}}[/tex]

B.[tex]63.4{\text{ cm}}[/tex]

C.[tex]25.6{\text{ cm}}[/tex]

D.[tex]51.2{\text{ cm}}[/tex]

Explanation:

The diameter of the circle is [tex]16.3{\text{ cm}}.[/tex]

The radius of the circle can be obtained as follows,

[tex]\begin{aligned}{\text{Radius}}&= \frac{{16.3}}{2}\\&= 8.15\\\end{aligned}[/tex]

The radius of the circle is [tex]8.15{\text{ cm}}.[/tex]

The circumference of the circle can be obtained as follows,

[tex]\begin{aligned}{\text{Circumference of circle}}&= 2\times\frac{{22}}{7}\times 8.15\\&=\frac{{44}}{7}\times 8.15\\&= 51.2\\\end{aligned}[/tex]

The circumference of the circle [tex]\boxed{51.2{\text{ cm}}}[/tex].Option (D) is correct.

Option (A) is not correct as the circumference of the circleis  .

Option (B) is not correct as the circumference of the circle is  .

Option (C) is not correct as the circumference of the circle is  .

Option (D) is correct as the circumference of the circle is  .
