Question

Kiyo used wire fence to form a border around a circle region in his backyard if the radius of the circle region was 5 yards what was the total length of the border around to the nearest tenth of a yard

Answer 1

10.4 yd

Explanation:

Circumference of a circle is the measure of the perimeter of a circle. In this case, the border is around a circular region with a radius of 5 yards. The general formula for the circumference of a circle:

C = 2πr, where 'r' is equal to the radius

Since the region has a radius of 5 yards, we can find the total length of the border needed:

C = 2π5 = 10π or 10(3.14) = 31.4 yards
