Question

B

23. Find the EXACT circumference of the circle
if AB = 2in and BC = 11in.
A
C
a. √117 in
b.
5√5π in
c.
35.1 in
d. 5√5 in

Answer 1

C. 35.1

Explanation:

First get the length of AC by using the Pythagorean Theorem, that ends up being about 11.18. Then you need to get the radius of the circle so you divide 11.18 by 2 and get 5.59. Then plug 5.59 for r into 2(pi)(r). 2(pi)(5.59) = 5.123

Answer 2

Answer B is correct

Explanation:

First, let us find the diameter (AC) of the circle using the Phythogerem theorem.

AC² = AB² + BC²

AC² = 2² + 11²

AC² = 4 + 121

AC² = 125

AC = √ 125

AC = 5√5

And now let us find the circumference of the circle.

C = π × d

C = π × 5√5

C = 5√5π in
