Grade 11 Circles CCSS: HSG-GMD.A.1

As the number of sides continues to increase, will the value of the perimeter continue to increase without bound? Or is it approaching some value? Why?
  1. The perimeter value will continue to increase without bound, because the number of sides will keep increasing.
  2. The perimeter value will continue to increase without bound, because n is increasing at a faster rate than a is decreasing.
  3. The perimeter value will approach a certain value, since it is bounded by the circumference of the circle. The value seems to be π.
  4. The perimeter value will approach a certain value, because as n increases, a decreases. The value seems to be 4.
