A window manufacturing company sells windows that are in the shape a half circle (semi-circle), with the length of the base of the window, b,
forming the diameter of the circle.

Respuesta :

Here , we are required to ultimately evaluate the formula to define the perimeter of the window when the length of the base of the window is;

b = 19.

The expression and formula which represents the perimeter of the frame and it's evaluation when b=19 are as follows;

(a) See attached image

(b) The expression is {(π × b)/2} + b

(c) The formular is; P = {(π × b)/2} + b

(d) When b = 19, P = 48.86 inches.

According to the question; the windows are in the shape of a semi-circle with the length of the flat base of the window, b forming the diameter of the circle.

  • The Perimeter of a circle is given as;
  • p = π × b,

where p = perimeter and b = diameter

Therefore, the perimeter of a semi-circle is;

(π × b)/2

(b) An expression to represent the perimeter or length of the frame of the window (in inches) in terms of the length of the base of the window, b is;

(perimeter of the semi-circle) + length of the base,b

The expression is ; {(π × b)/2} + b

(c) The formular is then given as;

Perimeter, P = {(π × b)/2} + b

(d) To evaluate the formula when b = 19; we have;

P = {(22/7) × (19/2)} + 19

P = 48.86 inches
