what do u mean add the straight edge im still a bit confused
The formula for circumference (perimeter) of a circle is
C = pi * diameter
C = 3.14 * 20
C = 62.8 m
For a semicircle's perimeter, divide the circumference in half and add 20.
C = pi * diameter
C = 3.14 * 20
C = 62.8 m
For a semicircle's perimeter, divide the circumference in half and add 20.
A semicircle has a straight edge.
