A mirror frame in the shape of an oval is shown below. The ends of the frame form semicircles:

An oval is formed by a rectangle with semicircles at each end. The length of the rectangle is 62 inches. The width of the rectangle is 27 inches.

Which of the following is the perimeter of the inner edge of the frame?

(π = 3.14)

146.78 inches

208.78 inches

293.56 inches

347.56 inches

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have that:

- An oval is formed by a rectangle with semicircles at each end.

- The length of the rectangle is 62 inches. The width of the rectangle is 27 inches.

2. Then, the perimeter is:

P = ((3.14) (diameter) / 2) (2) + (Lenght of the rectangle) (2)

P = ((3.14) (27 inches) / 2) (2) + (62 inches) (2)

P=208.78 in
