A circle with a radius of 4 in. is dilated by a scale factor of One-half. What will be the circumference of the circle after dilation? 2 pi in. 4 pi in. 16 pi in. 24 pi in.

Respuesta :

Answer:

4 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of A circle with radius of 4 in, after dilating by a scale factor of one-half, will be 2 inches.

Cirumference of the circle after dilation is

C= 2 pi r

C = 2 * pi * 2

C= 4 pi

A circle is a curve sketched out by a point moving in a plane. The circumference of the circle after dilation will be equal to 4π inches.

What is a circle?

A circle is a curve sketched out by a point moving in a plane so that its distance from a given point is constant; alternatively, it is the shape formed by all points in a plane that are at a set distance from a given point, the centre.

Given a circle with a radius of 4 in. is dilated by a scale factor of One-half. Therefore, the radius of the dilated circle is,

Radius after dilation = 4 in. × (1/2)

                                 = 2 inches

Now, the circumference of the dilated circle can be written as,

Circumference = 2 × π × R

                         = 2 × π × 2 inches

                         = 4π inches

Hence, the circumference of the circle after dilation will be equal to 4π inches.
