Solution

Length of tape required to cover the edges of a semicircular disc of radius 10 cm is 51.4 cm.

Explanation:

In order to find the length of tape required to cover the edges of a semi-circular disc, we have to find the perimeter of semi-circle


From the above figure it is clear that,

Perimeter of semi-circle = Circumference of semi-circle + Diameter

∵ Circumference of semi-Circle = `(2πr)/2`

= π × r

= `22/7 xx 10`

= `220/7`

= 31.4 cm

∴ Total tape required = 31.4 + 2 × 10 ...[∵ Diameter = 2 × radius]

= 51.4 cm
