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.
The diameter of the semicircle will be twice the radius.
It can have any value up to 392 square cm.
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.
circumference of a semicircle = pi * diameter / 2 (pi multiplied by the diameter and divided by 2)

it is have the diameter
It can have any value up to 392 square cm.
It is its diameter plus half of its circumference
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.
It is half the circle's circumference plus its diameter.
circumference of a semicircle = pi * diameter / 2 (pi multiplied by the diameter and divided by 2)
Pi*radius squared is how to find the area of a semicircle
Is the 30ft the radius or the diameter. The area of a circle = Pi x (radius squared), so, if the diameter is 30ft, making the radius 15ft, the area would be Pi x(15 squared) square feet, and the area of its semicircle would be half of that, so the area required = Pi x (15 squared) divided by 2 = 353.429 sq ft On the other hand, if the diameter is 15ft, making the radius 7.5ft then the area required = Pi x (7.5 squared) sq ft for the full circle and half as much for the semicircle = 88.3573 sq ft As an extra; you will find that the area of the smaller semicircle is exactly one quarter of that of the larger semicircle, and I wonder if you can reason out why that is so.
semicircle PQR of diameter 10 cm.semicircle PAB and BCR of diameter d1 and d2 respectively are inscribed in the semicircle PQR or such that the sum of d1 and d2 is equal to 10 cm. determine the relation between the lengths of arcs PQR,PAB, and BCR.
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.
