Question

What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 6 in? (A)12π in (B)36π in2 (C)9π in2 (D)36 in2

Answer 1

Choice C correct answer.

Explanation:

From the question statement, we observe that

d=6 in

r=d/2

so, r=6/2=3 in

The formula to find area is

A = πr²

Putting the value of radius, we get

A = π(3)²

A= 9π in²
