refer to the attachment....
therefore the perimeter of the rectangle CDGH
or the rectangle inscribed in a semicircle of radius r is
now diameter of the semicircle is=2r
therefore the ratio of the perimeter of the rectangle to the diameter of the circle is
=3:√2 (proved)

Question:-
ABCD is a rectangle enclosed inside a half circle.
Prove the ratio of the perimeter of the rectangle to the diameter of the rectangle is 3:[√2]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the rectangle is 2x and the breadth is x.
And the radius of the semicircle is assumed to be r.
Now, see the diagram attached.
From, Δ OAB, OA = x and AB = x and OB = r and ∠ OAB = 90°.
So, applying Pythagoras Theorem r² = x² + x²
⇒ r = √2x.
Now, perimeter of the rectangle is 2(2x + x) = 6x
And the diameter of the semicircle is 2r = 2√2x
Hence, the ratio of the perimeter of the rectangle and the diameter of the semicircle will be 6x : 2√2x = 3 : √2 (Answer
