From module Geometry Basics

Problem

A ball with diameter 44 inches starts at point AA to roll along the track shown. The track is comprised of 33 semicircular arcs whose radii are R1=100R_1 = 100 inches, R2=60R_2 = 60 inches, and R3=80R_3 = 80 inches, respectively. The ball always remains in contact with the track and does not slip. What is the distance the center of the ball travels over the course from AA to BB? [See figure in original PDF]
