Figure depicts a racing track whose left and right ends are semi-circular. The inner width of the track is 60 m and they are each 106 m long. If the track is 10 m wide, find the length of the track around the inner edge.
(round off to nearest whole number)
400
The required distance is sum of long sides of rectangle and the circumference of semi-circles.
The length of the rectangle (l) = 106 m
The radius of the semicircle (r) = 30 m
Hence the distance = l+l+2πr
106 + 106 + 2 × 3.14 × (30) = 400.4 m ~ 400 m
