Question

Find the area of the circle to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for Pi.

Answer 1

105.6 m^2

Explanation:

The equation to find an area of a circle is:

`A = \pi r^(2)`

A is the area, and r is your radius.

The diameter of a circle is its width. In this case, your diameter is 11.6m. The radius of a circle is simply half the diameter. So:

11.6 / 2 = 5.8

Now that you have r, plug it into your equation.

`A=3.14(5.8)^(2)`

`A = 105.6296...`

Round to the nearest tenth.

`A = 105.6\ m^(2)`
