Properties of Semicircle
There are several properties of the semicircle. Some of properties of semicircle are,
- Semicircle is a two-dimensional shape.
- Semicircle is half of the circle.
- Semicircle has a curved edge, so it is not a polygon.
- Semicircle is formed by the half of the circumference of the circle and a diameter.
- Angle formed inside a semicircle on its circumference is equal to 90°
Semicircle
Semicircle: In mathematics, particularly in geometry, a semicircle is defined as a one-dimensional set of points that make up half of a circle. It is a circular arc spanning 180 degrees, which is equivalent to π radians, or half of a full rotation. Semicircle is a half circle formed by cutting the circle into two halves. It is a circular arc that measures 180°, or π radians, or a half-turn. It only has one line of symmetry, called reflection symmetry.
In this article, we will discuss the concept of a semicircle, including its shape, formula, examples, perimeter, and area.
