If the distance round the circle is 5.14 units then the distance round 1/2 of it would be 2.57 units.

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 circumference of a circle is 2{pi}r. So, for a semicircle it is half this, that is {pi}r. The perimeter of the semicircle is the round bit ({pi}r) plus a diameter of the circle (2r) perimeter = {pi}4 + 2 x 4 ~= 20.6 in Area of a circle is {pi}r2, so for a semicircle it is half this. area ={pi}42 / 2 ~= 25.1 in2.
If you are given the diameter 'D' of the circle: the full circumference is (pi times D) the perimeter of the semicircle is half this plus the diameter Therefore: Pi x D /2 + D
If the semicircle is placed on 1 side of the rectangle:Find the total perimeter(circumference) of the side opposite to the one with the semicircle's base and the 2 sides perpendicular to the semicircle's base.The formula for circumference of a circle is 2πr.Thus for the semicircle we will take the circumference as πr.Find the sum of 1st and 2nd points. This is the final answer.
A semicircle
