Let r be the radius of the given semi-circle.

Question Image

Perimeter of semi-circle = its circumference + its diameter

∴Circumference of a semi-circle = πr227r

It is known that the diameter of a semi-circle is equal to 2r.

∴ Perimeter =227r + 2r367r 

It is given that the perimeter of the semi-circle is 180 cm.

367r=180 r=35 cm

Thus, the radius of the semi-circle is 35 cm.
