Respuesta :

The perimeter C of a full circle is given by:

[tex]C=2\pi R[/tex]

where R is the radius.

We're given that:

R = 8.9 inches

π = 3.14

So, we get:

[tex]C=2\times(3.14)\times(8.9)[/tex][tex]C=55.89\text{ inches}[/tex]

However we need the perimeter of a quarter circle. We have to divide our answer by 4.

[tex]C=\frac{55.89}{4}[/tex][tex]C=13.97\text{ inches}[/tex]

And that's our final answer.
