a dartboard has a circumference of 78.5 in.What is the diameter?
\(2 \pi r = circumference\)
so,
\(\frac{circumference}{2 \pi } = radius\)
it equals 12.49 or 12.5 depending on rounding
I hope this helps!
Answer: 25 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The circumference of a circle is given by :-
\(C=\pi d\), where d is the diameter.
Given : A dartboard has a circumference of 78.5 in.
Then, we have
\(\pi d=78.5\)
We put \(\pi=3.14\) in the above equation, we get
\((3.14) d=78.5\\\\\Rightarrow\ d=\dfrac{78.5}{3.14}\\\\\Rightarrow d=25\)
Hence, the diameter of the dart board = 25 inches.
