Find the circumference of a satellite dish that has a diameter of 21 m.
Take m to be 37.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A satellite dish is roughly in the shape of a circle. So, the equation for cicumferance of a circle is:

C = 2$\pi$r.

However, you are given the diamter in this equation. To get the radius, you will simply cut the diameter in half:

21/2 = 10.5

Now, to get the circumference of the satellite dish, you would simply plug in the numbers:

C = 2$\pi$(10.5)

Therefore, C = 21$\pi$ or roughly 65.97 meters.
