What would the perimeter of a 20ft semicircle be?

That depends on what you mean by a "20 ft semicircle".A semi-circle is a half circle.A 20 ft circle could be:A circle of diameter 20 ftThe perimeter of the semicircle is half the circumference plus the diameter → perimeter = 1/2π 20 ft + 20 ft= 10π + 20 ft≈ 51.42 ftA circle of radius 20 ftThe perimeter of the semicircle is half the circumference plus double the radius → perimeter = 1/2 2π 20 ft + 2 x 20 ft= 20π + 40 ft≈ 102.08 ftA circle of circumference 20 ftThe perimeter of the semicircle is half the circumference plus the diameter → perimeter = 1/2 20 ft + 20 ft ÷ π= 10 ft + 20/π ft≈ 16.37 ftHowever, if a 20 ft circle is a circle with a circumference (= perimeter) of 20 ft then a 20 ft semi-circle could be a semicircle with a perimeter of 20 ft→ perimeter = 20 ft
