Answer:

r  = 1.71 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Pre-Solving

We are given that a quarter of a circle has a perimeter of 10.71 kilometers. We want to know what the radius is of this quarter circle.

Recall that the perimeter of a full circle is [tex]2\pi r[/tex], where r is the radius of the circle. But, since we have the quarter of the circle, the perimeter of the quarter circle is [tex]\frac{2\pi r}{4}[/tex].

This means that [tex]\frac{2\pi r}{4} = 10.71[/tex]

So, multiply both sides by 4.

We get:

[tex]2\pi r = 42.84[/tex]

Now, divide both sides by 2.

[tex]\pi r = 21.42[/tex]

Since we want to use 3.14 for pi, we now have:

3.14r = 21.42

Divide both sides by 3.14 to get:

6.82 = r (rounded to the nearest hundredth).

But remember this r value is for the full circle, not the quarter circle. So, divide 6.82 by 4.

In that case, the quarter circle's radius is 6.82 / 4 = 1.71 km.

Answer:

1.71 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

  • Perimeter of a quarter circle = 10.71 km
  • Value of π = 3.14

We have to find :

  • Radius of quarter circle.

Solution :

We know that perimeter that is circumference of a circle is given by :

  • 2πr

But according to question we are given the perimeter of quarter circle which means :

  • [tex]\sf{Perimeter_{(Quarter\:Circle)}}=\dfrac{2\pi\:r}{4}[/tex]

Now ,

[tex]\sf{\longmapsto\;\;\;\dfrac{2\pi\;r}{4} =10.71}[/tex]

Multiplying both sides by 4 ;

[tex]\sf{\longmapsto\;\;\;\dfrac{2\pi\;r}{\cancel{4}} \times\cancel{4}=10.71\times4}[/tex]

We get ,

[tex]\sf{\longmapsto\;\;\;2\pi\;r =42.84}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{\longmapsto\;\;\; 2\times3,14r=42,84}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{\longmapsto\;\;\;6.28r=42.84}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{\longmapsto\;\;\;r =\dfrac{42.84}{6.28} }[/tex]

We get :

[tex]\sf{\longmapsto\;\;\;r=6.82 \:km}[/tex]

But we have to find the radius of quarter circle , therefore dividing the radius with 4 :

  • [tex]\sf{\dfrac{6.82}{4}} =\underline{\boxed{\bold{1.71 \; km}}}[/tex]

>>> Therefore , radius of quarter circle is "1.71 kilometres".
