56. If the perimeter of a semicircular protractor is 108 cm, then the diameter of the protractor is

(1) 54 cm
(2) 42 cm
(3) 24 cm
(4) 108 cm

Correct Answer: (2) 42 cm

Solution:Perimeter of semicircular protractor = πr + 2r

⇒ r(22+ 14\7) = 108

⇒ r = 108*7\36 = 21

∴ Diameter of protactor

= 21 * 2 = 42 cm.
