Pi times the diameter gives you the circumference. Then divide that answer by two. Then add in the diameter - and, voila, you have your answer as to the perimeter of a semicircle.

-- Find the circumference of a full circle with a diameter of 12 mm.-- The perimeter of the semi-circle is(1/2 the circumference of the full circle) + (the diameter).
The semi-circle is 0.5 X pi X diameter + diameter The semi-circle is 0.5 X pi X diameter + diameter
Half the Circumference + the DiameterCircumference of a circle = pi X d ,so perimeter of a semi-circle = (3.142 X Diameter) + Diameter
The length (circumference) of the curved part of a semi-circle is pi times the radius (pi*R). If the diameter is given, then the semi-circle length is 1/2 (pi * x D) because the radius is 1/2 of the diameter.(There are 2pi radians in a full circle.)A closed shape formed from a semi-circle has a perimeter P = D + (pi * D / 2)(diameter plus the curved part)
The area of a semi-circle with a diameter of five is: 9.817 units2
