5. An ant is moving around a few food pieces of different shapes scattered on the floor. For which food-piece would the ant have to take a longer round? Remember, circumference of a circle can be obtained by using the expression C = 2πr ,where r is the radius of the circle.

Solution:
(a) Radius = Diameter/2 = 2.8/2 cm = 1.4 cm
Circumference of semi-circle = πr
= (22/7)×1.4 = 4.4
Circumference of semi-circle is 4.4 cm
Total distance covered by the ant= Circumference of semi -circle+Diameter
= 4.4+2.8 = 7.2 cm
(b) Diameter of semi-circle = 2.8 cm
Radius = Diameter/2 = 2.8/2 = 1.4 cm
Circumference of semi-circle = r
= (22/7)×1.4 = 4.4 cm
Total distance covered by the ant= 1.5+2.8+1.5+4.4 = 10.2 cm
(c) Diameter of semi-circle = 2.8 cm
Radius = Diameter/2 = 2.8/2
= 1.4 cm
Circumference of semi-circle = π r
= (22/7)×1.4
= 4.4 cm
Total distance covered by the ant = 2+2+4.4 = 8.4 cm
After analyzing results of three figures, we concluded that for figure (b) food piece, the ant would take a longer round.
