If the semicircle is placed on 1 side of the rectangle:
circumference of a semicircle = pi * diameter / 2 (pi multiplied by the diameter and divided by 2)
A circle is two semicircles put together. The circumference of a circle is the length around it, so half of that would be what you are aiming for. Let's call the circumference "c" and the radius (the straight part of the semicircle) "r". Pi is also needed in this problem, so we can use "π". The equation for the circumference of a circle is c=2πr. Replace "r" with the length of the straight part of the circle, and do the math. Divide your answer by 2.Example:r=2c=2πrc=2π2c=4πc=(approximately)12.5712.57 divided by 2 equals approximately 6.29.The length of the curved part of the semicircle is 6.29!Hope this helps!
The diameter of the semicircle will be twice the radius.
To find the perimeter of the curved section of the semi-circle: Perimeter of semicircle = Pi x radius If you also need to the find the perimeter of the straight part of the semicircle (the diameter), it is simply double the radius.
A semicircle is 1/2 of a circle. Find the area with the diameter you are given as if you had a whole circle, then divide that answer by 2 to get the area of the semicircle.
It is its diameter plus half of its circumference
circumference of a semicircle = pi * diameter / 2 (pi multiplied by the diameter and divided by 2)
It is half the circle's circumference plus its diameter.
Consider the straight side as the diameter of a circle, find the circumference of the circle, calculate half the circumference and then add it to the diameter. circumference = pi x diameter = 3.14 x 36 = 113.04 perimeter of semicircle = 1/2 circumference + 36 = 56.52 + 36 = 92.52
The circumference of a semicircle is pi times the radius plus the diameter.

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.
The diameter of the semicircle will be twice the radius.
it is have the diameter
To find the perimeter of the curved section of the semi-circle: Perimeter of semicircle = Pi x radius If you also need to the find the perimeter of the straight part of the semicircle (the diameter), it is simply double the radius.
The length of the curved part of the semicicle is π*d/2 where π is the transcendental number approximated by 3.14159 and d is the diameter. The length of the straight part of the semicircle is, of course, d.
First find the circumference of the whole circle using Pi x diameter. Halve the answer and add the diameter. Thus: 3.1416 × 10 = 31.416 ÷ 2 + 10 = 25.708cm So the perimeter of the semi-circle is 25.7cm
