Answer:

The length of the semicircle arc is 6π

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need to use the circumferenc formula of a circle:

c = circumference

r = radius = 12

π = pi

c = π * d

we replace with the known values

c = π * 12

c = 12π

The length of the circumference is 12π

N ow we divide the circumference by 2 and we will obtain the length of the arc of the semicircle

12π / 2 = 6π

The length of the semicircle arc is 6π
