Answer:

A = 25π ft² or A = 78.5398 ft²

Explanation:

The formula for area of a circle is

A = πr² where r is the radius

We are given a diameter of 10, the radius is half of the diameter, so for our problem r = 5. Plug that in and evaluate

A = π(5²)

A = 25π

or

A = 78.5398 if you multiply out pi
