What is the circumference of the circle?

Since the tetherball is in the centre of the circle, any distance from it to the edge of the circle will be its radius. So, radius (r) = 5 ft.

Now, the formula for the cirumference of a circle = 2πr

Circumference of the circle

= 2πr

= 2 × 3.14 × 5 [π = 3.14]

= 31.4 feet (option E)

What is the circumference of the circle? (Its radius is 5 ft)

[tex]\diamond\large\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer and how to solve:-}}}}\diamond[/tex]

The distance from the tetherball pole to the edge of the circle is the radius of the circle; we're given that it's 5 feet (ft).

We're asked to find the circumference of the circle, which can be found using the following formula:-

❖ [tex]\sf{C=2\pi r}[/tex]

Where:-

C=circumference

π=pi (3.14...)

r=radius

Substitute 5 for r:-

[tex]\sf{C=2\pi (5)}[/tex]

On simplification,

[tex]\sf{C=10\pi}[/tex]

On further simplification,

[tex]\sf{C=31.4\:feet}[/tex]

So we conclude that the right option is:-

[tex]\checkmark\dashrightarrow\bigstar\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Option\:E}}}\bigstar\dashleftarrow\checkmark[/tex]

Good luck.
