  2. What is the formula for the radius of a semi-circle? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-is-the-formula-for-the-radius-of-a-semi-circle

    If given the area: The normal area of a circle is A=pir^2. Since a semicircle is just half of a circle, the area of a semicircle is shown through the formula A=(pir^2)/2. We can solve for r to show an expression for the radius of a semicircle when given the area: A=(pir^2)/2 2A=pir^2 (2A)/pi=r^2 r=sqrt((2A)/pi) If given the diameter: The diameter, like in a normal circle, is just twice the ...

  3. Semicircle area? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/semicircle-area

    The area of the shaded section is 113.076mm^2. To calculate the area of the shaded area, we calculate the difference between the area of the semicircle and the area of the circle. The formula for area of the semicircle is: A_S=(pir_S^2)/2, where A_S=Area of semi-circle, and r_S^2=radius of semicircle, given as 12mm (since 24mm is the diameter which is twice the radius). The formula for area of ...

  4. What is the area formula for a half circle? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-is-the-area-formula-for-a-half-circle

    Explanation: The typical area for a circle is: sssA = πr2. Divide both sides by 2, or multiply both by 1 2, to find the formula for half the area: sssA 2 = πr2 2. We can do a practice problem: what's the area of a half a circle (a semicircle) with a radius of 6?

  5. What is the area of a semicircle with radius 8 cm? | Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/57bf0c3611ef6b6f4ac650c5

    Here's a diagram of what's going on. Before applying the formula, let's convert 180˚ to radians. (180˚)/1 xx pi/ (180˚) = pi We will now use the formula to determine the area of this semi-circle. A = 1/2 xx pi xx 8^2 A = 1/2 xx pi xx 64 A = 32pi " cm^2 We can confirm this using the formula for area of a semi-circle, A = (r^2pi)/2.

  6. What is the area of a semi circle with a 15 foot diameter?

    socratic.org/questions/what-is-the-area-of-a-semi-circle-with-a-15-foot-diameter

    The area of the semi-circle is "88.357 ft"^2". The formula for the area of a semi-circle is: A=(pir^2)/2, where: pi is pi, and r is the radius. The formula for the radius is: r="d"/2, where: d is diameter. First determine the radius. r=("15 ft")/2 r="7.5 ft" Now determine the area of the semi-circle. A=(pir^2)/2 A=((pi)*("7.5 ft")^2)/2 I am going to use the pi button on my calculator. If your ...

  7. What is the formula for finding the area of an oval? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-is-the-formula-for-finding-the-area-of-an-oval

    Explanation: Similar to how the area of a circle is A = πr2, an oval (ellipse) is similar, except for that it has the equivalent of two radii, the semi-minor and semi-major axes. The r2 in the circle area equation is replaced with the product of the lengths of the axes: Aellipse = πab. Answer link. pixx"semi-major axis"xx"semi-minor axis ...

    The formula for area of a semicircle is: A = 1 2πr2, where A = area, π = 22 7, and r = radius. With the given data, we write: A = 1 2 × 22 7 ×(7 cm)2. A = 1 2 × 2211 7 × 7 ×7 cm2. A = 77 cm2. The area is "11 cm"^2. The formula for area of a semicircle is: A=1/2pir^2, where A=area, pi=22/7, and r=radius.

  9. What is the area of a semi-circular garden where the ... -...

    socratic.org/questions/59a2ebb67c01495b73ba60ea

    See a solution process below: Because the garden is a semi-circle and the perimeter is 108m, we know if it was a full circle the perimeter would be: 108"m" + 108"m" = 216"m" We can now use the formula for perimeter of a circle to find the radius of the circle which is the same as the radius of the semi-circle. C = 2pir Where: C is the circumference r is the radius. Substituting for C and ...

  10. What is the arc length of a semicircle if the diameter is 10?

    socratic.org/questions/what-is-the-arc-length-of-a-semicircle-if-the-diameter...

    So the arc measure of the semi circle is 15.71. 15.71 The arc length of a circle has it's own formula: m^@/ (360^@)pid m^@ = "angle measure of arc" d = "diameter" Since this is a "semicircle", the angle measure of the arc is going to be 180^@. And they said that the diameter is 10, so we can update the formula: (m)/ (360)pid 180/360pi (10) 0 ...

  11. How do we arrive at the formula for area of a circle as

    socratic.org/questions/58122e63b72cff5c09a9afba

    Hence, area of circle is πr ×r = πr2. Answer link. Please see below. pi is defined as the ratio of circumference C of a circle to its diameter, which is double the radius r, hence by definition pi=C/ (2r and C=2pir There are various ways of deriving formula for area of circle, including complicated one using calculus, however the simplest ...
