Answer:

$12\pi \ ft$

Explanation:

we know that

The circumference of a circle is equal to

$C=\pi D$

where

D is the diameter of the circle

In this problem we have

$D=24\ ft$

substitute the value

$C=\pi (24)$

$C=24\pi\ ft$

In this problem BAC represent a semicircle

therefore

To find the length of BAC, divide the circumference by

$24\pi/2=12\pi \ ft$
